Writing for Video
The class will teach you how to approach sketches differently when you are writing for video. Learn how ruthlessly you must put your idea up top, how to recognize the faster pace required, how to use visual information as much as verbal, and what you have to adapt if you're used to writing for stage. Discuss what types of videos are currently successful on line and how to learn from them. Learn how to asses the production difficulty of a script and how to minimize that.
Students must bring a proposed script for a video to the first class.
Pre-requisite: Successful completion of Sketch 101.
