About This Course
Anyone who wants to work as a professional television writer has to be able to submit top-notch original material to agents and showrunners. In this fast-paced intensive workshop, you take your idea for a half-hour or one-hour TV series, create a pitch document and turn it into an outline. You write intensively, and get feedback from the instructor and fellow participants. Throughout this process, you learn how to envision the world of your show; create characters and conflict; build a storytelling engine; and nail down your show's structure, tone, story and act breaks. This intensive workshop then guides you through writing a solid draft of your original pilot script from your created outline, focusing on capturing the essence of the show through its act structure, plot, multiple storylines, characters, scenes and dialogue. On the business side, you hear from guest speakers and learn how to develop your career game plan and hear about the business of television. You also hear an introduction to show-running principles.
