This comprehensive class equips you with the skills necessary to craft a complete feature-length movie screenplay.
Perhaps you already have a movie script in development, yet find yourself becoming stuck as you navigate through the acts, intricate plot twists, and individual scenes. Relief is here. With guidance from veteran screenwriter Chris Reed (who has successfully sold 13 scripts), you can elevate your screenplay to professional standards in this intensive online master screenwriting workshop. Prior to the initial session, you will complete a brief survey that describes the specific challenges you face with your script. Using this information, Chris will develop custom lectures tailored to address your particular issues, teaching you advanced techniques and proven solutions that work. The instructor will guide you through methods for developing the protagonist's internal journey, crafting compelling story surprises, and facilitating discussions about how these techniques apply to each individual screenwriter's unique narrative.
All participants will receive personalized homework assignments designed to help you apply these lessons directly to your own work. Upon completing the class, you will have written a substantial portion of your script, moved significantly closer to a polished draft, and absorbed professional-level techniques and strategies. An Oscar statuette is not included in the course materials.
Prerequisites: Completion of Screenwriting 2 at Writing Pad, plus possession of a draft containing at least the first 30 pages of your script. Please complete registration for Screenwriting 2 before enrolling in this advanced class.
