SIX 2 1/2 HOUR SESSIONS

Learn how to engage with the multiple fundamental elements of your story that you need to understand before embarking on all other facets of the Director’s craft. Developed initially from the thesis presentation class that as Head of the Graduate Directing Program I taught at the American Film Institute Conservatory for sixteen years, and now greatly expanded, this class shows how the Filmmaker can apply rigorous analysis of the elements of dramatic narrative and construction in a screenplay to the creative vision of their film, whether short or feature, TV episode or season.
