We will cover professional screenplay format; the proper definition of a scene; the crucial differences between cinematic and theatrical dialogue; how to create compelling, three-dimensional, and memorable characters; and story structure—text and subtext, plot points, and cinematic pacing. Many clips will be shown and analyzed to illustrate points. The seminar focuses on writing and group discussions in a constructive and supportive environment. Estimated course material fee is $50.
