The workshop will cover
1. Basic use of screenwriting software. Final Draft will be used in class. People can download a free 30 day trial from FinalDraft.com I suggest doing that shortly before the workshop. I wouldn't say it's a requirement, but it will be a big help. I've contacted Final Draft about being a sponsor and donating a free copy of their latest version of Final Draft 10 to give away at the end of the workshop. I'm just waiting to hear back.
2. Elements of a script. What's everything means and how it's put together as well as script structure.
3. The Rules of Screenwriting.
4. Character creation.
5. Dialogue.
6. Developing a story idea.
7. Time permitting, we'll have a class exercise.
