RSFI | Screenwriting Intensive
July 28 @ 9:00 am - August 1 @ 4:00 pm
9:00 AM to 4:00 PM | The Summer Institute Screenwriting Intensive is a five-day workshop designed to introduce students (rising 10th thru rising 12th graders) to the craft of screenwriting. Students will learn about using the tools of story structure, character, characterization, conflict, desire, and plot. They will learn how these tools apply to stories and to the films we know and love. Students will learn industry standard screenplay formatting and explore various writing and story-breaking techniques like beat sheets and three-act structure. Over the course of the week, students will write their own short film scripts, which could be used for college admissions or included in their own portfolio.
