SCWR 454: Rewriting the Original Television Pilot

This class focuses on practical ways to approaching the rewriting of a script; specifically this class will focus on students' original television pilots. Through group workshops, lectures, and readings, students will identify and improve problems in various areas of their teleplay including, but not limited to: plot, character development, dialogue, and pacing. By the end of the quarter, students will have completed a full rewrite of their complete pilot script; therefore, students must posses a complete television pilot in order to enroll in the course. This course is repeatable.
