Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this screenwriting class:

Award Winning Screenwriter Jacob Krueger Will Forever Change The Way You View Screenwriting.

Rather than imposing formulaic models from the outside, we teach you how to organically “grow” your script, from initial idea, to character, to scene, to act, to the movie you’ve always dreamed of writing.

Jump Start Your Writing.

Whether you’re a young writer picking up the pen for the first time, or an old pro looking to inject new life into your writing, this exciting four week workshop will teach you a whole new way of looking at the fundamentals, and help you integrate your artistic goals into your real world life.

A Special Emphasis On In-Class Writing.

Experience our mind opening in-class writing exercises, designed to get you writing and keep you writing. Under our careful guidance, you will learn how to get your creativity flowing at will, to create the kinds of scenes that you’ve always wanted to write.

A Community That Fuels Your Creative Fire.

Our groundbreaking approach to feedback fosters a close-knit community of fellow writers, whose only goal is to support you in yours. Together, you’ll discover a new form of feedback that keeps the focus on what really matters: your story and how you want to tell it.

Build A Writing Lifestyle.

This workshop will teach you more than just great writing. It will prepare you to make writing a permanent part of your life. Along the way, you’ll learn how to overcome writer’s block, self doubt, procrastination, and other obstacles to build the writing life you have always wanted for yourself.

    Jake is an amazing teacher. Many are good at their craft but unable to share it. He does it with a warm, interactive style that made the class fun and interesting.

    I haven't been this inspired in ages. Jacob made the course work and eventual worth of the screenplay seem like something that I knew I should do but didn't know how to finish.

    I have been around writing for a very long time from many perspectives, have degrees in writing and so on and within the first 15 minutes of class I started hearing things from Jacob that I had never heard anywhere. He is a brilliant teacher and the kind of person you just want to be around because I know he is changing not just my writing but my life in ways that I still have not even fully realized yet.

    This is a great class for dispelling your fears as a writer and setting goals to tackle your next big project. He gives you the foundation to writing a good screenplay (movement, format, structure) and the habits you need to make it happen. What happens next, however, is up to you.

Question from connie v.
Hi, I'll be out of town on one of the class dates, how can I make it up?
Answer from Anonymous
Hi Connie, Good news. If you’re going to be out of town or can’t attend live in NYC you can either join the class live online from anywhere in the world and participate just like you we’re in the room or watch free video on demand replays for a full month after the class ends. So even if you have to miss a class in person you won’t miss anything.

I attended film school ten years ago and have a thorough understanding of screenplay basics but want to join a class that will help me develop an idea I have and provide an opportunity for me to get feedback from other aspiring writers. Is this class right for me?
Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi there! The instructor said, "Yes, we have had many film school graduates and professional writers take the class and have a great experience. But of course after the first session if it’s anything other than exactly what you need, come to talk to me and we will either get you into the right class or refund your money." Hope this helps!
