55-4325L Screenwriting Workshop: Coverage of Adapted Screenplays in L.A.


This course requires that students read and analyze a variety of novels that have been adapted into films. They will also read the scripts based on these works of prose and learn how to do coverage, a standard practice used throughout the studio system. They will also view the films based on these published works. Students will then participate in weekly Q & A sessions with the screenwriters who originally adapted the above material, gaining first-hand knowledge and insight into the adaptation process. Prose and script coverage will be used to analyze different adaptation approaches and will serve as practice for entry-level positions in story editing or development offices in L.A.
