Writing for Novel and Screen (COMM2169)
Semester 1, Semester 2 / 2009

Description

This course develops your ability to conceptualise, write, analyse, revise and rewrite your own novel or feature film script. Throughout the course there will be an emphasis on the art and craft of novel writing and feature film scriptwriting. You will regularly be asked to present your writing to your peers and to give and receive feedback.

Assessment

You will receive critical feedback from your peers and lecturer. The aim at this postgraduate level is to assist you to make the transition from being a hobbyist writer to becoming a professional writer. One of the aspects of this transition is to encourage you to analyse and offer solutions to writing problems that you encounter in both your own writing and in the writing of others in the class. Three assessment tasks have been created in order to assist you to create new writing and to reflect upon that process of creation.
