Writing the TV Drama Pilot

Enrollment Requirements: Undergraduate Prerequisite: COMFT 512 or COMFT 522; Graduate Prerequisite: COMFT 512 or COMFT 522 Writing the TV Drama (or dramedy) Pilot, explores the creation and development of your very own "one-hour" Television Series Pilot. Each student will pitch a concept, write a treatment, outline and pilot script. Also, you'll create a "leave behind" document, which will consist of an overview of your series, complete with character descriptions, future episode ideas and much more. We will closely examine the ingredients of a pilot script through lectures, script analyses of successful pilots, written assignments and group workshops.
