The course equips students to recognise and cultivate new screen-writing talent; to apply screenplay structure to a writer's work; and to understand the practical process of film production and the possibilities and constraints of finance and marketing; the programme combines lectures, seminars and workshops alongside master-classes with industry practitioners, and supervised practical work with screenwriters; the other written assessed assignments are practical and designed to be useful to a career in development; the taught element of the course runs for 1 year, followed by a 6-month supervised development project in which the student is paired with a new screenwriter to take a script through a series of development meetings and drafts.
