Undergraduate Honors Theses. Paper 413. https://scholarworks.wm.edu/honorstheses/413 This Honors Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Theses, Dissertations, & Master Projects at W&M ScholarWorks. It has been accepted for inclusion in Undergraduate Honors Theses by an authorized administrator of W&M ScholarWorks. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Scriptwriting: Theory and Practice The independent study course which I hope to participate in this semester would involve writing a twenty to thirty-page screenplay that would eventually be produced into a short film. This film would be made as an Honors Project using the funding for a self-designed project, which is provided as a facet of the Murray Scholar Program. The Independent Study would be advised by Professor Sharon Zuber, who is also my academic advisor for my Film Studies major. I hope to undertake this screenwriting independent study for a variety of reasons. First of all, there is not currently a screenwriting course being offered this semester. Given the nature of the film project I am hoping to produce, it is crucial that I begin the screenwriting process this semester, so that I can then have a complete idea of what my film is going to entail so that I can undertake pre-production planning efforts in the Spring semester, and be ready to start production during the Summer of 2010.
