Students work on the feature-length screenplays begun in Screenwriting 1. They begin by reviewing their detailed outlines in order solidify the structure and simplify the writing process. In class, writers analyze their own and one another's stories for strength of imagery, clarity of underlying ideas, and effective use of elements such as unity, tension, obstacles, exposition, foreshadowing, and cause and effect. Writing exercises help students develop unique, complex characters. By the end of the course, each student should have completed the first 50 pages of a draft in proper screenplay format. Weekly page requirements keep writers on track, and in-class reviews offer support, guidance, and direction.
