C023 - Introduction to TV & Screen Writing
 

This course defines how to prepare a professional screen or TV script (and the differences between the two), and how to position, package, and submit that script for sale. In both cases, adopting industry-standard formatting is critical to getting the script past the reader and into the hands of the decision maker. Course provides in-depth instruction and practice in character creation, scene and plot construction, and in defining settings and in making necessary research decisions. Participants are encouraged to bring their own script work in progress to the class. Each student will develop a minimum of 5 pages (two scenes) in the class, and have the opportunity to hear and learn from the work of other class members read cold in the class.
