About This Course
This workshop guides you to write a solid draft of an original pilot script from your half-hour outline created in a previous course. You start by reworking your story idea and outline as needed, fixing story problems and maximizing the comic potential. Special attention is paid to refining the world, characters, tone and story of your pilot. You then move toward completing a first draft of your script, working on scenes, dialogue and action, until it captures your original vision and matches a network's likely requirements. You must bring a completed story outline and the teaser pages to the first day of class.
