You don't have to know anything about scriptwriting to take this class.
In eight, short weeks you will go from zero to working on your own script pages.
The class is formatted to help the student create pages immediately and then build on previous work to continue that growth in a fun, dynamic lecture and peer-driven workshop.
Students are given all the tools they need to understand and implement scriptwriting techniques each week.

Unleash the Inner You!
Writing is a journey, an exploration, like when you first went to college or got married or started a new job. The difference is that writing is also a deep, inner journey to self-discovery; to places you couldn't touch but you always knew were there, hidden, just waiting to be expressed.
Orange Coast College and Irvine Valley College Department of Community Education offer a unique, not-for-credit and hands-on practical screenwriting course from professional screenwriter Mark Sevi (credits here) where students learn scriptwriting techniques and student work is evaluated in a dynamic workshop on the basis of both its artistic and commercial merit.
The courses are guided, the workshops fun, the learning exponential!
Stop thinking about writing that movie or TV series in your head and actually do it!
Mark Sevi is a professional screenwriter who has sold 34 scripts, 19 of which have been produced into film. One of this films, "Devil's Knot", is based on true events in West Memphis, Arkansas in the early nineties. It was released in 2014 starring Reese Witherspoon and Colin Firth. (IMDB)
He has been teaching for 15+ years and his classes have been featured in articles and seminars.
He is also the founder and president of the Orange County Screenwriters Association, a not-for-profit organziation that organizes film events and speakers and brings resources to all filmmakers in Orange County and beyond.
