Introduction to Screenwriting: The Basics of the Craft

Introduction to Screenwriting: The Basics of the Craft

This course will give you the basic tools you need to write a screenplay.

• You'll get a description of the elements of screenwriting and some resources and links to help you on your journey.
• This course should take about four hours to complete through reading the text, watching the videos and filling out the worksheets provided.
• You'll also want to explore the links provided to gain a greater understanding of those elements of screenwriting.

If you have any questions or need help, feel free to contact me!

I want this to become a screenwriters' community where we can:

• meet up in Google hang-outs,
• have sessions using Livestream to address questions and concerns you might have, and to connect with each other!

Take this course if you have an idea for a screenplay, or if you need help refining you idea and giving it structure so that you can share it with others and turn it into an actual screenplay that you can submit to agents and producers, and to contests.

Learn all the elements you need to create a compelling, professional-looking screenplay.
