===Multi-camera teleplay=== Shows that use multi-camera teleplays are typically filmed in front of a [[live studio audience]]. Guidelines for these scripts include making all dialogue [[double-spaced]], stage directions being printed in [[All caps|all-caps]], and making all the scenes numbered on the top of each page. Unlike in film screenplays where one page can translate to one minute, a page on a teleplay translates to 30 seconds of screen time.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Difference Between Screenplay, Teleplay, Stage Play - What's the Difference? |url=https://www.finaldraft.com/learn/screenplay-stageplay-teleplay-whats-difference/}}</ref> Other guidelines include starting each new scene on a new page, as well as making sure each scene includes a list of characters who will appear in a particular scene.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |author=MasterClass staff |date=August 30, 2021 |title=What Is a Teleplay?
