Overview of class

This course will provide students with a working knowledge of the fundamentals of screenwriting. Students will learn how core concepts of character, structure, plot, theme, setting, and tone work together on the written page to create a compelling narrative. Students will explore these concepts and their practice in film, by writing the first 30 pages of a full-length screenplay. This exploration may also assist students with understanding the basic structure of television dramas, and discovering how to communicate their own personal voice and vision.
