Take your writing to the highest level, and develop clear strategies for professional success. With a combination of expert guidance and peer-group workshopping, you’ll develop your unique voice as you learn to meet the demands of a highly competitive industry. The course will help you to become a more adept scriptwriter, able to work across theatre, radio, film, and television. Along with a comprehensive training in key writing skills, you’ll develop your critical thinking, creative dexterity, and coherent strategies for professional progress.
With access to campus resources such as professional recording equipment and television studios, you’ll collaborate with acting, directing and film-making students to make films, record audio drama, and develop plays for theatre. Creative collaboration forms the heart of the Scriptwriting course, as you develop an understanding of live presentation, of idea as word, and of the direct relationship, in any given medium, between writer and audience.
Usually, you will have a good undergraduate degree in any subject. Relevant experience can be considered and entrance is through submission of work which needs to be presented to professional formatting standards, a personal statement, associated documentation as needed, and interview.
