Film Novelization
by Horatio Jones11 items Last modified March 7, 2014The writer of a novelization is supposed to multiply the 20,000-25,000 words of a screenplay into at least 60,000 words. Therefore it is safe to state that the most obvious property of a film novelization is the increased volume of pages. Writers usually achieve that by adding description or introspection. Ambitious writers are moreover driven to work on transitions and characters just to accomplish "a more prose-worthy format". Sometimes the "novelizer" moreover invents new scenes in order to give the plot "added dimension", provided he is allowed to do that . It might take an insider to tell whether a novelization diverges instead unintentionally from the finally released film because it is based on an earlier version which possibly included meanwhile deleted scenes. Thus the novelization occasionally already presents material which will later on appear in a Director's Cut. In spite of all restrictions the writers select different approaches to enrich a screenplay.
