COM 321 Introduction to Screenwriting
Prerequisite: COM/ENG 312 Reciprocal Credit: ENG 421 The key to every great film is a great script. Screenwriters need to be adept at not only conceptualizing a film, but also conveying that idea to the industry, and, most importantly, putting pen to paper and writing a script that rings true with layered characters, meaningful conflict, and authentic dialogue. This course will allow students to consume important and transcendent screenplays and explore the journey from idea to finished script.
