U.P. FILM INSTITUTE SUMMER WORKSHOPS 2011
BASIC SCRIPTWRITING WORKSHOP:
VISUALIZATION FROM SCRIPT TO SCREEN
By Libay Linsangan Cantor
Brief workshop outline:
The goal of this workshop is to introduce scriptwriting to a general audience.
The lectures are specifically designed for those who do not have any formal/informal background or experience whatsoever in filmmaking, media, the arts, (other forms of) writing and the humanities in general. It could also serve as a good review for those who have the aforementioned background and who plan to start working in the field of film and TV scriptwriting.
The workshop will cover an overview of the film/TV industry and a brief introduction to basic filmmaking language as applicable to scriptwriting, discussions on the anatomy of a screenplay, learning scriptwriting essentials, studying narrative structures, characterization and story plotting.
