By the end of the workshop students should reach several tangible benchmarks in the course of successfully completing the first draft of their feature lengths scripts (Feature Screenwriting Project II)

In general terms, the course goal is also for students to achieve a better understanding of the work necessary to complete a feature-length screenplay. Ideally, students will leave the course with a solid foundation for further development of their script, and in the case of the directing students, the first step toward their feature directing debut following graduation.
