LAUNCH A CAREER IN SCREENWRITING
Immerse yourself in the world of screenwriting. Spend 8 months being mentored by industry professionals and award-winning screenwriters. Learn to develop characters, write authentic dialogue, and properly format scripts. Build your skills with 8 portfolio projects including multiple short film scripts, a TV pilot with a series bible, and a full feature film screenplay to pitch to studios.
ONE-ON-ONE MENTORSHIP FROM PROS
At every draft of every project you’ll receive one-on-one mentorship from our industry professional instructors. In addition, suggestions and critiques from classmates will provide ideas, highlight issues, and provide the collaborative feedback of a true writers’ room.
SMALL CLASS SIZES
Classes are kept small and intimate. Get individualized attention from award-winning, industry-professional instructors and the opportunity to connect with your classmates throughout the writing process. Build strong creative and professional relationships that last well into your career.
HARD WORK, NOT OVERWORK
Classes in the Writing For Film and TV Program run four days per week. You can’t rush perfection, and that extra day allows you to commit the time needed to write quality scripts and build a polished portfolio without getting burnt out.
BUILD YOUR PORTFOLIO
FEATURE SCREENPLAY
One of the key goals of this screenwriting program is for your script to emerge as a realistic contender for production. Write your own screenplay for an original, marketable feature film—the true mark of a professional screenwriter.
TV PILOT
An original pilot script is still considered the best way to gain a toehold in the industry. Develop and write your own 30-minute or 60-minute TV pilot script along with “bible” that maps out your series.
GAME OUTLINE
Video games are one of the biggest forms of entertainment and are in constant need of storytellers. Develop your own concept for a AAA video game. Write the first mission with engaging construction, objectives, stimulus and rewards.
WRITER’S ROOM EPISODE
Experience working in a professional writer’s room. Your instructor will bring real-world television experience and act as the showrunner for a series you develop in class. Then collaborate with your peers to write your very own episode.
MULTIPLE SHORT SCRIPTS
Write multiple short scripts. Short films have launched the careers of filmmakers like Christopher Nolan, Taika Waititi, and Ava DuVernay. Learn professional formatting and find your own creative voice.
LEARN FROM AWARD-WINNING FILM + TV WRITERS
Instructors in the Writing For Film and TV Program are all industry professionals and award-winning screenwriters. Hundreds of combined credits allow them to pass along mastery of the latest writing trends, industry connections, and unparalleled experience.
