Description:

This course is an examination of the fundamentals of dramatic writing; learning to use the tools and techniques of the playwright, screenplay writer, teleplay writer, librettist, or performance artist. Plays, movies, TV shows, operas, ballets, and performance art will be explored and analyzed from the point of view of theme, plot, dialogue, character development, structure, tone, genre, and scenario.

Building on the strengths of the specific arts discipline in which the student received undergraduate training, he or she will be guided through a linguistic pre-visualization of the project before scripting begins.
