Creating a film takes a lot before, during and after the filming of the movie takes place! During pre-production a lot goes on and the creating of a script is one important part of it! Every movie starts with a script and the scripts are even available for you to read online. A screenplay is a specialized version of a script. This might include what types of shots are wanted etc. A script in general however is a written work that is where the movements, actions, expressions and dialogues of the characters are narrated.
Although the script is not always exactly followed by the director, it is a basic version of what the film is hoped and supposed to be like.
The pay for a screenwriter is very subject to be different from one person to the next. There are also different kinds of screenwriters. Someone who writes a spec script (short for speculative) doesn't get paid for writing the actual script. Once they have written a script for a movie, they try to sell it to filmmakers. A pitch is where a writer writes a 5-20 minute long presentation of a prospective movie and presents it to possible buyers. A feature assignment is where a writer writes the script on assignment when they have a contract with a studio or a production company or an individual.
