SUMMER
Screenwriting + Film Course
06–27–26

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. Instructor : Sonia Oleniak

SUMMER
Film Philosophy Course
JULY-AUG // TBA

This course explores the intricate relationship between philosophy and the cinematic medium. Rather than approaching theory as an abstract end in itself, the course treats philosophy as a tool for analyzing lived experience and deepening our understanding of our relationship to cinema. Its aim is ultimately to sharpen our ability to recognize what transforms a cinematic scene into a work of art. Through thinkers such as Henri Bergson, Gilles Deleuze, Alain Badiou, and Ludwig Wittgenstein, we will watch and discuss a series of films in order to better understand the possibilities cinema reveals and unfolds. No prior background in philosophy is required, as the course will remain grounded in clarity, concrete experience, and direct engagement with film itself.. Instructor : Noé Dodson

SUMMER
Screenwriting + Film Lab
06–28–26

This 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...
