Definição e Significado de "scriptment"

What is a "scriptment"?

A scriptment is a hybrid between a script and a treatment. It is a detailed outline of a story that includes both narrative descriptions and dialogue for key scenes. Unlike a full screenplay, which contains complete dialogue and scene directions for the entire film, a scriptment provides a more comprehensive overview than a treatment but is less detailed than a finished script. It is used as a planning tool to convey the structure and major elements of the story, helping writers, producers, and other collaborators understand the flow and key components of the project.
