Introduction to Scriptwriting for Screen
The course is an introduction to the basics of scriptwriting for screen and is open to anyone 18+ regardless of experience. The course is ongoing and the 6 weeks will focus on formatting scripts, dialogue,character and developing plots.
The idea of the programme is that by the end of the 6 weeks each participant will have written a 10-15 minute short film. During the course the aim is to provide information about structuring and developing a sound script. The sessions will include both a lecture ‘style’ part which looks at structuring your script, the factors which are necessary for a sound script, examples of other peoples work and writing exercises. On your final session your script will be read by actors in the session to bring the piece to life.
Writing can be a lonely task, these sessions give participants the chance to meet like minded people from all different walks of life and also fresh eyes and minds to bounce your ideas off.
The venue is at the Dance House Theatre Oxford Road, Manchester 7.30pm - 9.30 pm
