To calculate the Script Length (\(SL\)):
\[ SL = \left(\frac{WC}{WPM}\right) \times 60 \]
Where:
Script length refers to the number of pages or words in a script, typically for a film, television show, play, or radio program. It is often used as a rough estimate for the duration of the final product, with one page of a screenplay usually equating to about one minute of screen time.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ SL = \left(\frac{1200}{150}\right) \times 60 = 480 \text{ seconds} \]
The script length is 480 seconds (or 8 minutes).
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ SL = \left(\frac{900}{180}\right) \times 60 = 300 \text{ seconds} \]
The script length is 300 seconds (or 5 minutes).
