Description

What a fun opportunity for students to learn how to turn a story into a screenplay. Screenplay is the written work for a film, television show, or other moving media, that expresses the movement, actions, and dialogue of a character. Screenplay, or scripts, are the blueprint for the movie. A screenplay is written in a specific format to distinguish between characters, action lines, and dialogue.

A ten-week course where the student will learn how to storyboard, format a screenplay, and think like a director. They will use reading sections of books and follow links to watch how it was made into video. This is a pdf download. There are activities to do but no assessments. ~Amber

In Screenwriting 101, you will learn how to storyboard, format a screenplay, and think like a director. You will gain experience by working with well-known, beloved stories and movies, such as The Tale of Despereaux, Holes, Peter Rabbit, Star Wars, Toy Story, and The Princess Bride.

Fun activities include watching the first motion picture with a story, outlining a silent movie, and playing the role of an old timey film editor, cutting and organizing film strips into a coherent story.
