Welcome to the Loft's Summer program at Open Book! Join us for 3 days of writing and creativity!

Are you a teenager who wants to write your own movie, but you don't know how? This is the class for you!

Aimed at beginners, this class starts off with the fundamentals of screenwriting — how screenplays are written, their formatting, and what they look like.

From here, students will share what ideas they have and begin writing their own scripts. Throughout the course we'll cover how screenwriting structure and character works, while using film examples to reinforce those lessons.

Students will also be encouraged to bring in their own writing to receive feedback from their peers and the teaching artist.
