Screenplays demand a specific structure. In this seminar students will begin with an idea and during the first five sessions build a coherent treatment of the events and major emotional arcs of the film's three acts.

Topics to be discussed will include:
  • Cinematic Storytelling: The Foundation of Filmmaking
  • Good Stories vs. Good Movie Stories
  • The Mechanics of Moving a Story
  • Choosing a Narrative Structure
  • Techniques for Building Strong Characters
  • Common Story Pitfalls
