UPFI Workshop: Basic Screenwriting

 

Brief Description

Screenwriting is the imagined film in paper and words. It develops writers to think visually in telling their stories. The screenplay produced by the screenwriter becomes the basis of the director for every decision in making the film.

This course is designed to introduce and cultivate the skill of screenwriting (which mostly is for TV and film). As screenwriters are tasked to envision the film in writing, the workshop is intended to teach visual storytelling, screenwriting principles, tips in conceptualization, and screenplay design and elements.

Course Outline
• Introduction to writing
• Functions of screenplays
• Visualization, log lines, and conceptualization
• Role of scriptwriter
• Screenplay formats and elements
• Techniques in writing effective scripts
