WRIT 111 - Dramatic Structure

3 credits
A dramatic-writing workshop that introduces the major principles of writing stories for the screen. The course teaches three-act structure, the plotting of dramatic sequences, character development, dramatic conflict, and story setting. Students complete focused creative-writing assignments on a weekly basis, participate in frequent workshops, and write a larger project as their final piece.
