Have you thought there’s a terrific screenplay in your head? Do you know you have the ideas but lack only the experience to get them down in screenplay form? Have you always wanted to get expert feedback that helped shape your idea into a marketable finished product?

Now all of this can be achieved online, on your time schedule. Dr. Paul Lazarus, Director of the University of Miami’s prestigious Motion Picture Program will work one-on-one to assist you in planning, outlining, and commencing your feature-length screenplay.

Winner of two national screenwriting competitions and producer of six acclaimed Hollywood films, Dr. Lazarus has guided hundreds of aspiring screenwriters during his years in Hollywood and with UM’s School of Communication. Now, he will bring his years of experience to assist you, online and in the privacy of your home. With this unprecedented opportunity: refine your idea, develop the principal characters, prepare a step outline of your plot, perfect your screenplay format, and receive extensive comments on your actual screenplay pages.

NOTE:
Registration is ongoing and the duration is ten weeks. The class is held completely online and the tuition is NONREFUNDABLE.

Final Draft software is required for this course. Please go to www.finaldraft.com to purchase Final Draft if you do not already own it.

"This on-line screen writing course has been a challenging and rewarding learning experience. Paul Lazarus gives such a close read for every step of the process and offers guidance specific to my project at precise and critical points. I have the flexibility which a creative but highly disciplined skill demands and the advantage that response from him is immediate. He is available for conferences whenever I need them to refocus on the spine of my story and wrestle with characters and conflicts."
