Writers Professional Materials
Writers Professional Working Materials INTRODUCTION Writers professional working materials and the tools of the trade – they are considered the sales tools for a writer’s work. These will be the most utilised materials when trying to establish yourself as a scriptwriter as either writer-for-hire work or when pitching your own original idea. No Producer or Production Company (locally or internationally) will ever read a script, treatment, logline or synopsis – unless a pre-existing relationship is in place – unsolicited. This means writers first need to be invited to send through materials in the manner that best suits that Producer or Production Companies. This helps to protect copyright or a copyright claim for both parties. It is also important to note that in international territories only Agents are able to introduce writers to Producers and Production Companies. Below each header you will find links to helpful sites and further information. As a screenwriter your job is to write, research, write, learn, write, and adapt. Google is your friend and before you ask Facebook for the answer, ask Google! Or check out the NZWG website for information on knowing your rights, contracting, useful facts and upcoming events. Before going any further, the below link is a must read for newcomers and is aimed at people applying for early development funding. It’s put together by Screen Australia, and is a very basic ‘How To Guide’ for feature filmmakers on application materials included in their application process – logline, synopsis & treatment. https://www.screenaustralia.gov.au/getmedia/ae5708a4-05d9-4db0-b5fb-4f999fdfed57/What-is-a- synopsis.pdf Below are all the materials broken into parts, starting with how to format your works.

Presner, Co-Chair Professor Roman Koropeckyj, Co-Chair My dissertation investigates the cinematic representation of forced migration (due to the border changes enacted by the Yalta and Potsdam conferences in 1945) in East Germany, West Germany, and Poland, from 1945–1970. My thesis is that, while the representations of these forced migrations appear infrequently in feature film during this period, they not only exist, but perform an important function in the establishment of foundational national narratives in the audiovisual sphere. Rather than declare the existence of some sort of visual taboo, I determine, firstly, why these images appear infrequently; secondly, how and to what purpose(s) existing representations are mobilized; and, thirdly, their relationship to popular and official discourses.

Being confned to a classroom where one is taught the basic OVERVIEW criteria for bringing a story to life will ultimately limit one’s Fdevelopment as a flmmaker. At the Academy, our philosophy is learning by doing, something students will experience from the second they step into our fantastic facilities. Whether potential students are interested in creating feature- length flms, shorts, music videos, or documentaries, the Academy’s diverse flmmaking courses will ft each student’s specifc needs. The Associate of Fine Arts (AFA) Filmmaking degree program allows students to focus exclusively on their professional and artistic development. Unlike a standard undergraduate program, students are able to focus on the feld they wish to pursue immediately. It is a stand-alone program rather than a component of a longer bachelor’s degree program structured for transfer. No education in flm is complete without directly experiencing the highly collaborative environment that flmmaking requires. Students work with each other and with faculty members to develop their own particular interests, while getting hands-on training in all of the elements at work on a flm set.

Using Film to Teach Psychology: a Resource of Film Study Guides
USING FILM TO TEACH PSYCHOLOGY: A RESOURCE OF FILM STUDY GUIDES Elizabeth M. Nelson, Christian Brothers University (2002 Instructional Resource Award Recipient) Overview This 106-page resource offers instructors tools for using films to enhance their instruction. Student evaluations consistently indicate that films help them learn the topics, provide an alternative to traditional lectures, and give them a different point of view. However, students also say they do not like to view films if they do not understand the relevancy of the film to the course material. This resource gives teachers of psychology additional tools for using film, such as tested study guides, sample syllabi, student papers, references, and Internet resources. The film study guides contained in this resource have been used in a variety of psychology classes, and may be applicable to a variety of other courses.

Course Outline: Screenwriting
Course outline: Screenwriting The MA in Screenwriting is a specialisation within the broader MA in Film and Television. The graduating screenwriter’s portfolio will consist of at least the three following (or an agreed equivalent): . a short script – either for a short fiction or animation graduation film, or an episode of a half hour soap, sitcom, radio drama or stage play . a television series episode script, either multi-stranded or stand alone . a feature length script for film or television, either original or adaptation The first year of the course establishes basic storytelling and introduces writers to a range of writing situations: short fiction films, short animations, short stage plays, original formats for TV series and Games. Also, to prepare the ground for developing feature film subjects, different forms are explored: realism, non-naturalism, non-linear narrative and fiction derived from fact. The groundwork is set for developing a feature screenplay. The second year is devoted to the full-length screenplay, the hour long television script, plus any collaboration on short fiction or animation graduation films or on a graduation project with the Games Department. At the time of graduation, the writers’ work is also showcased separately to the screenings. The course ends with extensive introductions to the industry with preparation on the practicalities and legalities of working. In this process, writers learn to pitch the projects in their portfolio. Year One Overview of Screenwriting Curriculum – First Year Assessed Modules and more informal Workshops will cover these issues: Term 1 . the screenwriter’s screen language – Telling the Story in Pictures - a general introduction to all the different kinds of writing that will be covered in the course – features, TV, radio, theatre, animation, games, etc.
