Screenwriting Workshop

If you already know screenwriting basics, you can use this course to build on your skills while developing a feature-length screenplay, pilot or short film script. Through writing exercises, in-class readings and critique, you learn to craft emotionally compelling story lines, engaging characters, effective dialogue and dynamic visual scenes.

Please come to the first class meeting prepared to pitch your story and discuss your objectives. We recommend that you take Screenwriting: the Art of Visual Storytelling ENGLISH X470 or an equivalent course before this one, though there are no formal prerequisites. Enrollment is limited.
