Teacher: Chris Reed

What you'll learn in this screenplay class:

You have a movie script in progress, but as you move through the acts, plot twists, and scenes, you get stuck. Have no fear. Veteran scribe Chris Reed (12 scripts sold) will help take your script to the next level in this five-week online master screenwriting workshop. Before the first session, you will fill out a brief survey detailing your script challenges, and from this, Chris will create custom lectures based on your issues to teach you advanced techniques and tried and true solutions. He will cover methods like crafting the protagonist’s inner conflict and story surprises and lead a discussion of how it applies to each screenwriter’s individual story.

Each student will get custom homework to apply these lessons to their own work. By the end of the class, you will have finished a big chunk of your script, moved closer to a finished draft and learned some pro techniques. Oscar not included.

Prerequisites: Screenwriting 2 at Writing Pad, plus a draft of at least the first 30 pages of a script. Please sign up for Screenwriting 2 before signing up for this class.

Bring Laptop if you have one, socks if it is a non-online class as we have a shoes off policy.
