FALL
Screenwriting + Film Course
Session I 09–20–25 
Session II
11–08–25 This is a course in the development, writing, and delivery of one sequence (<20 script pgs) + an outline of a feature screenplay. The class will be in two parts : lesson & laboratory — both intended to inspire the natural artistic instinct, curiosity & desire in you as you develop your film. Each week we will focus on an element of story : How do you go from seeds & ideas — to weaving a story — to writing a cinematic script ? Guided by lessons, writing prompts, film viewings (curated specifically for each week’s element), the course will give you room to explore, imagine, and write. Here, you will learn craft and develop your screenwriting intuition. Filmmaker/Educator : Sonia Oleniak

FALL
Screenwriting + Film Lab
09–21–25This Lab is a space open to you after completing the Screenwriting Course. More than a traditional writing workshop, this is a communal generative force. We meet once a week to share, give and take notes, develop and make our films. You are welcome to continue writing the screenplay you began in the course or bring in other material (rough cuts, audition tapes, treatments, pitch decks, anything you’d like fresh eyes on) or simply ignite a creative conversation about something on your mind, in your chest...  Filmmaker/Educator : Sonia Oleniak

Apply by sending us a little about the project/material you want to bring in.
