Two gorgeous diametrically opposed people meet, build an impenetrable bond despite the fact that they hate each other, and then fall head over heels in love. Sounds easy, right? Think again. Romantic comedies are an art form unto themselves, requiring an electric mix of witty banter and smoldering chemistry against all odds. In this five-week class, successful screenwriter Robbie Fox will share his techniques for navigating the treacherous territory from "The Meet" to love's joyous first kiss and, once it's lost, the journey to do whatever it takes to get love back. He'll help you beat out your story, crafting an irresistible script and give you a lot of individual help on your story. He'll help you avoid the rookie mistakes and show you how to create engaging characters and tantalizing scenes. By the end of this class, you'll have a fully developed outline and drafted a chunk of your screenplay. Before you know it, you'll be following the red carpet road all the way to the Oscars.
