Does format change for screenplays/teleplays/etc?

Yes. Multicamera sitcom scripts have a different format than single-camera TV scrips, which have a slightly different format than film scripts.

The best way to understand the differences is to study scripts of the different formats. The [johnaugust.com library](http://johnaugust.com/library) has feature script samples, while this [TV writing resource](https://sites.google.com/site/tvwriting/) has examples of both multicamera and single-camera TV pilots, under US Comedies and US Dramas, respectively.

For a detailed breakdown of the formatting elements unique to multicamera scripts, see [our post on multicamera format](https://screenwriting.io/how-are-multicamera-tv-scripts-formatted/).
