Writing a motion picture screenplay is quite different from writing a novel. A screenplay not only tells a story, it serves as a blueprint for creating a film. During this class, you'll discover how to plot your story, create fascinating characters, and structure the three acts. You'll leave this class with your screenplay plotted out, your story outlined, and the first act completed. Examples from a variety of movie generes will be reviewed, as well as samples from popular screenplays. Both novice and experienced writers will find this class fun and exciting.
