While any screenwriting program you use (I recommend Celtx in the video for all beginners) should help you format this automatically, you'll still need to know what each section means.

But if you'd like to learn more, I highly urge you to check out my #StorytellingShift series or read my post on the reasons every novelist should write a screenplay!
