It's time to write your screenplay

In this class you'll learn how to write screenplays that are grounded in the traditional elements of storytelling, yet express something personal and unique without relying on simplistic formulas. We'll focus on plot, genre, story structure, and developing a style of writing that works for screenplays. Plus: pitching your screenplays, getting an agent, and script formatting. We'll do a lot of writing, and you'll have a chance to share your writings with the class and get feedback about what's working and what's not. More Seattle Writing classes

Student comments

Thanks for the energy you put into the (Screenplay) course... I feel looser and happier and am having more fun writing. - L.D., Seattle

The class was really helpful, especially the exercises in writing scenes and writing a complete (very short!) screenplay. I can't believe what I came up with and what other people in the class came up with for that exercise. It was a real window into the amazing creativity we all have inside of us. - Jan H., Seattle

I turned some kind of a corner and writing has been easy since the class. Thank you! - Nathan I., Bellevue

Thank you for your explanation of how the pitching process works, and how to find an agent - M.L.,Bellevue

Wow, what can I say Nils, it was really good, thanks for the encouragement and information - Beth G., Kirkland

The advice about editing and rewriting was perfect for what I needed." - Scott W., Bellevue
