Screenwriting Project - Nesting Sequence 1

One of my two classes this semester is Creating TV and Movie Scripts. I originally started out with the intention of writing a television series - two teleplays to satisfy the course requirements.

So I flailed around with bad ideas for a few weeks, simply in hopes to crank out my weekly (required) fifteen pages. (One page equals one minute of screen time, give or take a bit.) And now I'm quasi-medium-high speed ahead on writing a movie.

DISCLAIMER: No promises here folks. This is MORE about learning about a new writing style for screen, and less about selling a script to a production company.

The course format is AWESOME. The class is only eight people and the professor. He has a witty, creative, sarcastic and dry demeanor. However, his advice is paramount! Here's how it works:

• Get some ideas together; feed your "muse"
  
• Learn about writing for screen
• Bring in your printed pages and fellow students read them - in a workshop format - and give you feedback on what you wrote
• Participate in writing exercises to help develop plot ideas and character arc
