TV WRITING

Each student develops an original series concept and an accompanying pilot script. The class includes the basics of how to build a series for network, cable and streaming. There is a focus on the pilot as both a successful episode and a blueprint for an ongoing series that has a strong enough premise to sustain dynamic stories for multiple seasons. 

In a step-by-step process, students move from series concept to pilot stories, to outline and lastly to script. Both half-hour and one-hour series are covered.
