24-2720 Genres in Screenwriting:


Course will study several screenplays, each of which effectively captures a sense of the genre chosen for the current semester. Students examine the screenplays in terms of the writers and the scripts’ ability to deal with contemporary or universal issues and themes in the context of the designated genre. Students will develop and write the first draft of a screenplay based upon techniques and elements of the specific genre but reflective of their own personal themes as well. This is a repeatable course wherein the genre rotates from semester to semester. Previous genres have included film noir, horror, science fiction, comedy, action adventure, and psychological thriller.
