Scripwriting 101 with Greg Woodland

In this workshop for aspiring screenwriters, writer/director and founder of Script Central, Greg Woodland, will lead you through these essential elements of a successful script:
  1. Genre and tone: what kind of movie am I writing? Audience expectations.
  2. Building Characters. Character vs characterization.
  3. the 3-Act structure. Key plot points
  4. Conflict - there's no drama without it.
  5. Finding your premise and theme - what's it all about, really?
  6. The cherry on top: Dialogue - text and subtext.
  7. Standard script formatting - (who cares what it looks like if it's a great story?!)
  8. Outlining your story. The low-tech solution: index cards
  9. Screenwriting IS Rewriting (Don't hate the rewrites - Dealing with feedback.)
