Writing a Web Series
Create clever, engaging, character driven short
content pieces for posting online (Instagram
live/TV, Twitter, FB, YouTube, Tik Tok etc.). Since
television and film are not in production and there
is little to no new content, people are turning to
short content in the virtual space. Why not put your
work out there to be seen? Produce a final script
and storyboard that is easy to shoot on your phone
or camcorder without any special equipment.
Rehearse with fellow classmates to prepare your
material for its Internet debut, and get direction,
suggestions and invaluable feedback from a
comedy pro! Open to students of all levels.
