Televisionary (Combo)

May 7 to Jun 25 — Sundays, 10:00am – 1:00pm (PDT)

Instructor: Ben Blacker

Televisionary is the foundation of the Script Anatomy Curriculum. An intensive 5-week course that is perfect for both new and working writers who want to elevate their scripts by applying Script Anatomy’s unique tools.

*Whatever your level—and whether you’re working on a TV spec or an original pilot—this course will help you advance.*

Your instructor will guide you through the Script Anatomy tools, a tried and tested process of crafting your script from concept to outline. Each week, you will receive lectures about the tools, and then a corresponding assignment in which you will apply those tools to your own project. And you will receive weekly peer feedback and instructor critique, providing you with an honest evaluation of your material in a dynamic and supportive environment.

Like all Script Anatomy courses, it’s highly applicable and hands-on, and it prepares you for life as a professional writer. All of our successful alumni have taken this course, many of them several times.

Tier 1 students receive peer feedback and instructor critique each week, providing them with a constructive evaluation of their material in a dynamic and supportive environment.

Tier 2 students students only attend lectures but receive no feedback on their projects, nor do they see Tier 1 students’ feedback.

All students will have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A at the end of each class. And if for any reason you can’t make the online class live, you can watch the video recording at your convenience.

Classes cover: Hooks/Concepts / Arena / Loglines & Pitching / TV Story Structure / Strong Act Outs / Tone & Genre Expectation / Character Development / Dynamic Relationships / Conflict and Obstacles / Dilemmas & Goals / Stakes / Theme

Testimonial(s): “Ben totally lived up to my expectations. He was so fun and he gave excellent feedback. He didn’t hold back on giving us the feedback we needed. I will not make it in this business if I don’t hear what is expected of me, and Ben was straight with me from the start. He always pointed out when things in my story lacked or if he thought I could go farther. In fact, I liked working with him so much that I signed up for a follow-up consultation with him to get my draft even better. Ben is a great teacher; you can tell he cares and wants his students to improve.“—Nicole Schwegman
