About this course:
In Relationship Driven Screenwriting I, you studied the concept of a “core relationship” and spent ten weeks developing your original idea guided by that approach. With a full story outline and thirty pages completed, this second part in the series offers you the tools, inspiration and deadlines to push through and finish your script. Through lectures, exercises and discussions, we continue to study how great scripts and movies are crafted, always focused on the relationships that drive them. We apply these lessons to your own material, cranking out pages and engaging in table reads to put them to the test. Along the way, you build up a toolbox of skills that works on your current scripts, as well as everything you write in the future.
