Writing For Film

AY2016/2017 Semester 2

Consisting of seminars and workshops on creative narrative development, this course provides an introduction to fiction film screenwriting. It covers the various professional practices, protocols and formats of cinematic storytelling during the development and pre-production of a film. Besides the importance to writing of explanatory narrative, this course also examines the role of such things as subtext, reference, timing and structure. Through practice and the analysis of appropriate examples of the genre, course work focuses on developing the student?s ability to conceptualise, develop and articulate a written cinematic narrative, as well as the critical and creative skills required of a film writer.
