Course Description

Summary

Focused on feature film screenplays and designed for students with prior experience writing a screenplay, the Advanced Screenwriting course will look deeper into how scene composition and story structure are used to create vivid and compelling narratives for a feature length film, and the further development of well-rendered characters and other tools to improve a writer’s visual storytelling skills. Students will read and discuss a variety of scripts over the fourteen weeks, and will submit, as a final project, full-length script for a feature film (90 pp to 120 pp).  While this class will also involve workshop-style submissions and critical discussions of student work in-progress, this course is not a workshop class. Preference will be given to students who have already completed either Screenwriting: Scene Structure or Screenwriting: The Story Studio.
