For those who have always wanted to write for the screen but had no idea where and how to start. Over this eight-week course, students will learn, develop and/or strengthen their skills in story structure, character development, and dialogue through writing, reading, and viewing assignments.
Weekly writing prompts will be given, then read and discussed in class, using a structured feedback paradigm, aimed at strengthening the beginning student's visual storytelling skills.
The final project will be an original, self-contained short screenplay (10-15 pages) which students will outline, write and revise during the last 3 weeks of the class.
