Course details

Content creators are producing more reality-based videos than ever before. Nonfiction videos can promote brands, advocacy, fundraising, training, and even "edutainment." But producing any video without a solid script—even corporate or documentary films—is a challenge. By learning an effective script writing and script-to-screen process, producers can lower their overhead costs and improve storytelling impact and audience engagement.

In this course, learn how to write nonfiction scripts that work with a variety of budgets. Taught by Amy DeLouise, a passionate educator who has scripted hundreds of award-winning videos, it's packed with tools and tips for every level of writer and producer. Her script-to-screen workflow will help you develop your story goals and structure, create a narrative arc, work with sound bites, find the right tools to write your script, and pitch your script to clients and stakeholders.
