Over the 8-week Intro to Screenwriting class at Westside Comedy, students will be introduced to the building blocks of storytelling. They will learn the fundamentals of writing a screenplay not only through discussion but also reading, watching and breaking down familiar Hollywood films. The course will allow students to develop ideas from a single thought into a fully fleshed out "Scriptment" - a treatment with several finished scenes incorporated into it. From there it is only a matter of time before they have a finished script.
