Script Analysis
at the Film Arts Foundation, San Francisco
Wednesdays, 6:0010:00
July 26August 30, 2006
$185/Filmmaker-level members; $235/others.
Limited to 20 students.
A solid understanding of dramatic structure is essential
for anyone
working in the film business. Through in-depth analysis of six films
(Kramer vs. Kramer, Double Indemnity, On the Waterfront, The
Crying
Game, The Bridge on the River Kwai and Traffic) students
learn the
components of a successful screenplay: how the story is conveyed
through action and visuals, how character changes progress the plot,
how thematic content is woven in, and how the "rules"
of dramatic
structure are applied, and modified, to serve artistic intentions.
Films are analyzed scene-by-scene on video. Texts used include the
original scripts and interviews with screenwriters. Students should
watch Kramer vs. Kramer before the first class.
