Televisionary (Drama & Comedy)

Sep 20 to Nov 1 — Sundays, 10:00am – 1:00pm (PT)

Instructor: Lauren Otero

Televisionary is the foundation of Script Anatomy’s Curriculum. An intensive 5-week course that is perfect for both new and working writers who want to develop and build their stories from concept to solid outline with Script Anatomy’s unique tools and receive detailed notes from a professional working writer instructor on all materials. You will be able to use the Script Anatomy tools for any script you write moving forward.

*Whatever your level—and whether you’re working on a TV spec or an original pilot—this course will help ensure your story has been developed and built for maximum impact and that you’re ready to go to draft.

Each week your instructor will guide you through the Script Anatomy’s lectures and corresponding tools (worksheets) which you will apply to your own project and idea. You will also receive feedback from your peers in a dynamic and supportive environment.

Like all Script Anatomy courses, our methodology and actionable process will prepare you for a successful career as a professional writer. All of our successful alumni have taken this course–many of them several times.

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

All students will have the opportunity to ask questions throughout the class. If for any reason you can’t make the online class live, you can watch the video recording at your convenience.

PHOTO / VIDEO DISCLAIMER: Script Anatomy reserves the exclusive right to use any photograph/video/audio taken at any Script Anatomy class, without requiring the permission of those included within the photograph/video. Script Anatomy may use the photograph/video/audio for educational, commercial, marketing or publicity purposes without limitation, and in perpetuity.

INSTRUCTOR DISCLAIMER: Since all of Script Anatomy’s instructors are working writers, opportunities sometimes arise in their careers that prohibit them from teaching. Change of instructor doesn’t qualify you, the student, a refund unless that refund falls under our normal refund rules. By paying and signing up for this class you are acknowledging and agreeing that the original instructor of this class may change before the class begins.

AI USE POLICY: Script Anatomy is a craft-based screenwriting program. Our work here is built on the belief that writing is a skill developed through practice, feedback, and revision, not something that can be outsourced.

Your own material: While we know some writers use AI tools for researching and brainstorming, we ask that the scripts and pages you bring to class represent your own writing and creative decisions. Using AI tools to generate scenes, dialogue, or structure in place of your own work undermines the purpose of the program and is highly discouraged.

Other writers’ material: As a reminder, everything shared in this room, scripts, pitches, and personal shares, falls under the “cone of silence” category and is also considered someone’s original work and IP (intellectual property). Please don’t run anyone else’s material through ChatGPT, Claude, Sudowrite, or any other AI tool. Writers in this industry are understandably protective of their work, and we treat that seriously.

Please note that classes are for individuals aged 18 and older.
