Developing the Narrative Foundation of Your Screenplay (On Demand)

Beginner to Intermediate
With: David Schwab, Destin Daniel Cretton, Howard Rodman, Mira Nair, Sterlin Harjo, Tamara Jenkins and Trey Ellis
The challenge of writing a feature-length screenplay isn’t starting - it’s choosing the right idea and then sustaining dramatic tension for two hours. The story demands a central dramatic problem powerful enough to drive the entire script, and finding the perfect conflict is often the hardest part of the journey. In this On Demand course, veteran screenwriter David Schwab provides the essential process for testing your ideas and building narratives that truly last.
