Lights, camera, action!

In Screenwriting Lab, students will learn how to craft compelling scripts for film and television. This hands-on class teaches the essentials of story structure, dialogue, character development, and visual storytelling — all while encouraging creativity and self-expression.

Each week, students will:

• Develop engaging characters and plots

• Write and refine short screenplays or scenes

• Explore how stories translate from page to screen

• Collaborate and give constructive feedback in a supportive environment

Whether students dream of writing for film, TV, or just want to bring their stories to life on screen, this class provides a fun, interactive, and creative space to learn the art of screenwriting.
