Feature Draft Intensive

Dec 3 to Jan 21 — Sundays, 10:00am–1:00pm (PDT)

Instructor: Scott Barkan

Have a feature outline to take to draft? Or a draft that needs to be rewritten? Maybe you’ve taken our Feature Development Lab class and want deadlines and feedback as you head into the draft?

Feature Draft Intensive is a structured 4 session class designed for screenwriters who have a completed outline and are ready to write their draft. It will help you get that unfinished project written and polished while reviewing Core Structure and other key elements as well as focus on tools.

It begins with a pre-class prep week in which writers hand in their outline and read a comedy or drama script chosen by the screenwriting instructor. In Week One writers receive notes on their outlines from their peers and the instructor. In Weeks Two and Three, they receive notes on the first and second halves of their scripts.

Though this is not a rewrite class, there will be revising and retooling of story and key elements.

Classes Include: Deepening Emotional Moments / Amping up Stakes/Conflict / Character Relationship Progression / Charting your Character’s Transformational Arc / Illustrating Themes

Required: Feature Development Lab or equivalent experience.

Testimonial: “I absolutely loved the class with Scott. He’s fun, he’s likeable, he’s smart. He was an excellent teacher and note giver. I feel like I learned a lot in such a short time. I definitely plan on taking more Script Anatomy classes in the future and would sign up for another taught by Scott in an instant.“— Kendra Gug
