New course:
Story and Script - 4CTA1036 FST 369: Special Topics in Film Studies
Narratives of one kind or another are key elements of modern media. Storytelling and character are at the
heart of Film and Television. This module looks at the way in which an idea becomes a story, becomes a
script of some sort used to organize and inform the film and television production and direction process.
Contemporary ideas about stories, characters and narratives and how they work in a range of media are
examined and explored. Creative writing activities develop the students' abilities to express ideas, stories,
characters and their familiarity with the conventions and formats of scripts commonly used in Film and
Television.
