Bring your story to life on stage or screen with a workshop at the West Side YMCA - Community Arts. Learn the fundamentals of dramatic writing, including story development, character creation, and dialogue, while receiving constructive feedback to inspire you towards completion. Whether you have a script in progress or simply want to be inspired, this course is perfect for all levels.
Do you have an idea for a stage-play, television pilot or screenplay? Or perhaps you’ve written a full or partial draft and now you want some constructive feedback to inspire you toward completion? Or maybe you don't have any ideas at all and just want to get inspired and have fun learning something about writing for the stage and screen? In this workshop, writing prompts and in-class writing exercises tailored to individual needs will address Dramatic Writing craft fundamentals, including: story, conflict, character, dialogue, visual action, and revision. Students bring in new pages of their script-in-progress to class and hear their material read out loud. In-class writing exercises tailored to individual needs help students develop skills and write scripts.
All levels welcome.
