FILM 225 - Screenwriting

Credits: 3
This course provides a broad foundation to writing for the screen. Storytelling is at the heart of screenwriting, and we will explore the elements of story such as plot structure, narrative arc, and character development. Lectures will deal with these topics and more, but over the course of the semester students will work on writing a screenplay for a short film and also a proposal for a documentary. A major part of class will be devoted to analysis, discussion, and revision of student work, so students should expect to spend a considerable amount of time for creative writing outside of class hours.
