CINE 350 Producing IV: Project Development

Course familiarizes students with the short film as a distinct form and learn the range of ways fictional short films can be originated along with associated best practices, including legal and ethical considerations. Potential sources will include original ideas, complete works adapted from other modes (such as short stories and stage plays), excerpts from existing works, and real world events (via news and current affairs). Under the supervision of faculty, senior screenwriting and producing students will form teams and provide scripts that maximize the creative and logistical potential of the source material. The course instructors will function as executive producers for all the projects developed within the class.
