On-Line (Asynchronous)
Leslie McCleave
Whether you are a writer, a director, or a producer, an understanding of story structure and dramatic principles is essential. In-depth analysis of a screenplay’s storyline, characters, dialogue, images, and theme reveals a wide range of narrative techniques and storytelling styles, from Hollywood to independent and everything in between. Students read screenplays and view selected films on-line and analyze the scripts, learning how essential information is conveyed, how story elements are communicated through visual means, how dramatic momentum is built with cause and effect, and what makes a character credible and complex. Students end the term with the ability to analyze film scripts of varying styles and lengths and apply that knowledge to their own screenwriting.
MEDST 281-03: Intermediate Studies in Media (VT): Writing the Short Screenplay
On-Line (Asynchronous)
Leslie McCleave
The short film is an art form of its own, often dominating film and video festivals.
This workshop is devoted solely to crafting short screenplays which could be produced in an advanced production course or independently. Students are introduced to the techniques of screenwriting with an emphasis on dramatic structure, visual language and character development. Then we focus on craft issues unique to short screenplay writing — what types of stories, characters, premises, resolutions, are best suited to short films? Students complete a short narrative screenplay as well as various exercises designed to enhance understanding of the craft of screenwriting. We will also examine the practical production challenges involved with bringing a short script to the screen.
