You have a story worth telling. What if the characters in your head became the next obsession on everyone’s watchlist? In this course, you’ll go behind the scenes of film and television, breaking down the stories that stick with us and learn how to create your own. You'll develop unforgettable characters, craft razor-sharp dialogue, build tension, and turn your ideas into a compelling TV pilot or film. You’ll pitch your story, put your pages to the test in table reads and workshops, and learn to write like a professional screenwriter. Stop just watching the stories you love. Create the next one.
