RTF 10517The Writer's Room

Catalog

THE WRITER’S ROOM provides students with an advanced understanding of screenwriting industry standards and practices for streamers, networks, and web-based productions. The course further offers an in-depth exploration of how the “rooms” of seminal and award-winning series are constructed and run. Using a workshop model, assignments and exercises of increasing importance will lead the class through the development of an original series. Students will execute individual and group research, and splinter into smaller units to write full episodes of this original show. The semester culminates with table reads of the season’s first three episodes.
