About This Activity
The skills learned and experience gathered in this course are transferable to students interested in writing for television, directing film, playwriting, or acting. Absolutely no experience is required, merely curiosity and passion. The course will take students from a blank page to a completed 5–10 page short film script, adhering to proper screenplay formatting and using industry-standard screenwriting software. We will provide them with proprietary frameworks used for concept development, supplementary documents aiding the screenwriting process, proven tactics & techniques that will enable students to continue screenwriting independently after course completion, as well as insider experience and advice on how to take a finished screenplay and use it to acquire funding for further development or production. Taught by an award-winning screenwriter who has credits in both short form and feature-length filmmaking, a successful history of having been awarded funding to produce screenwritten content via public grants and competitions, as well as experience working with aspiring youth artists at various experience/skill levels.
