CLASS DESCRIPTION

This six-week workshop takes students from an idea to a completed pilot script. Students will design their series, craft their very pilot outline, and write it in an online course designed to mimic working in an virtual TV writers' room. This is accomplished through a combination of lectures, examples, assignments, and interviews with showrunners - as well as copious amounts of actual writing! This course is the online version of the popular workshop I've been teaching since 2015.

Topics include:

The basic elements, and types of sitcoms
Developing your sitcom premise
Creating the logline for your series
Tips and techniques for creating characters
How to orchestrate the cast of characters in your sitcom
Types of pilots
How to brainstorm and break stories
How to outline like the pros
Jokes, bits and gags
Formatting for all types of sitcoms
Writing and rewriting tips and tricks.
How to work in a writers' room
Getting your script read and career strategies.

Directly after High School he joined the U.S. Air Force and became an Arabic translator. After the USAF, Steve went to College and studied Theatre and Film at UCLA, graduating with B.A.
