SCWR
455:
The Writers' Room
This course immerses students in a workshop setting modeled after a writers' room for an existing television series. Lectures and workshops provide a foundation for what it takes to be a professional and collaborative staff writer. Emphasis will be placed on pitching ideas, breaking story, and capturing the voice, character dynamics, and themes of an existing series. The course culminates in a spec script.
SCWR 452 or SCWR 453 is a prerequisite for this class.
This course is repeatable for 8.00 credit hours.
