Course Description

Develop advanced skills of screenwriting through a focus on a non-realistic dramatic writing technique based on dreamwork. Areas of study will include techniques of magic realism, symbolism, expressionism, absurdism, surrealism/dada, mythic/fantasy, musicals, political docudrama, and science fiction. 

I’ll be using my new book, Dreamwork for Dramatic Writing: Dreamwrighting for Stage and Screen, for the course
