Learn how to “beat out” your novel or screenplay into scenes.  In the TV writers room, most time is spent  “breaking stories” by putting them into scenes on the white board, creating a “beat sheet.”  In the first class, Maria teaches what a beat sheet is and why it’s so vital, as a screenwriter and novelist, to think in these terms.  In the second class, each student will take their turn at the white board beating out the beginning of their own story while Maria offers suggestions.

Price:  $325 | ($300 for Cloud Room members)
