Start with an idea. Finish with a complete outline.
In six weeks, you’ll take your movie idea and build it into a fully formed feature outline, while getting a deeper understanding of traditional feature film structure along the way. The group is small, 8 writers max, so everyone gets real attention.
How it works
Week 1: Groundwork. We set the foundation: your main character’s arc, your genre, and what your story is really about.
Weeks 2–5: Building the outline. Using the eight sequence approach as our jumping off point, each week we break down two sequences of the feature structure, using video lessons and exercises designed to generate ideas and push your story forward.
Week 6: Presentations. Everyone presents their story to the group.
Plus a 1:1 session with me
After the class ends, you get a 60-minute one-on-one session with me. We’ll look at where your outline stands and get you ready to write your first draft.
