SCREENWRITING 101
LOS ANGELES
7 Tuesdays, 7-10pm
May 29th - July 10th, 2018
In Hollywood
$400 for 7 weeks.
** 4 Spots Left **
Despite its name, Screenwriting 101 is geared to both new and experienced screenwriters alike. Professional television writers as well as Screenwriting MFAs start here.

The class will push the writer to structure their story through scenes and sequences rather than independent "plot points" in order to maximize dramatic momentum and emotional resonance.
