Screenwriting Class Information

See our full course description and additional information such as required supplies on our website.

This course guides students through the art and craft of storytelling in screenplays, offering a comprehensive journey from analyzing story elements to developing original ideas and refining their own polished screenplays. It’s a must for aspiring filmmakers and a fantastic opportunity for students who love creative writing and want to experiment with new styles.

Screenplays are a modern literary form that serves as the blueprint for narrative films. While they share core storytelling elements like character, plot, dialogue, and theme with other literary works, screenplays stand out for their visual storytelling focus. This unique and dynamic format bridges the gap between literature and film, making it an exciting medium to explore.

By the end of the course, students will have completed screenplays ready for independent production or further refinement in the Film Producing & Directing class offered in the spring semester. Join us to dive into this vital and inspiring modern storytelling medium!

Teacher: Mr. Tom Khazoyan
