UCLA Screenwriting Chairman Richard Walter Offers On-Campus UCLA Screenwriting Seminar Summer 2013 (Class FTV 135A–Open to UCLA and Non-UCLA Students)
Here is a rare opportunity for UCLA and non-UCLA students to enroll in an on-campus screenwriting seminar with Professor Richard Walter.
It’s easier to win admission to the Harvard Medical School than a seat in Professor Walter’s legendary screenwriting seminars at UCLA. He takes you all the way, from idea to draft to studio deal. UCLA-trained screenwriters have won three Oscars and five Oscar nominations in the past four years, and written ten movies for Steven Spielberg.
The class, FTV 135A, is offered in UCLA Summer Session ‘A’.
This advanced screenwriting workshop is especially designed for the summer session and is appropriate for new writers and also for experienced writers. It is a round-table roll-up-your-sleeves-and-write seminar. There are in-class writing challenges and also analysis of in-progress script pages written by students in the class.
The class meets on UCLA’S Westwood campus for six Monday afternoons from June 24 through August 2, 2:00 to 4:50 PM. The class, listed in the online catalog of courses as “FILM TV 135A ADV SCRNWRTNG WKSHP” (more info here) is open to UCLA students and also to students who are not enrolled at UCLA. Students receive 8 credits. All pre-requisites are waived.
