Screen Adaptation

Screen adaptation refers to the process of transforming a story from its original format—such as a book, play, or video game—into a film or television show. This involves interpreting the core themes, characters, and plot elements to fit the visual medium. Adaptations often require changes for pacing, visual storytelling, or audience engagement. While some adaptations remain faithful to the source material, others may take creative liberties, resulting in a unique interpretation. Successful adaptations maintain the essence of the original while making it accessible and enjoyable for a new audience.
