Screenwriting
CERT2
Why study Screenwriting?
All students will begin with a solid foundation of introductory level screenwriting skills as well as key components of strong storytelling. As they move through the certificate, they will be able to decide if they want to focus more on
feature film writing or television writing as elective options are created and added to the certificate as the Digital Media Collaborative continues to grow. Students will also have a solid understanding of the business side of screenwriting in order to best be able to market their artistic work.
Admission Requirements
Students already pursuing a degree in any college at UC can add the certificate to their program. Be sure to submit a declaration of the certificate program using our online form.
In addition, you must meet with the program director so that they are aware that you are pursuing the certificate and can advise you appropriately. Do this early enough to avoid delay in obtaining your certificate.
