About the Screenwriting Workshop
In this workshop, students will discuss and cover the structural basics and elements of a feature screenplay. How to construct an idea into a one to two sentence logline and develop that into a first draft. The collaborative nature of writing with producers, executives, directors. And how to break in and navigate the business side of the industry.
