Four Weeks to Your Sitcom Pilot
Until a writer can put together a group of people
that audiences cannot wait to be with every episode, there is no
sitcom. And that’s where it all begins. Starting with a joke is
like starting a drama with a message. Character is the key that
allows the creator to deserve jokes or messages. This workshop will
consist of four one-week sessions. Each session with include an
online lecture, along with various viewing and reading assignments,
links to classic TV comedies online or from other sources and a writing
assignment that will be submitted to the instructor for review and
detailed response. Students will be encouraged to post work for
group review and feedback, since the ‘room’ or ‘table’ is a highly
significant element in the professional world of creating
television comedy. Interaction benefits comedic creation and fine
tuning in almost every instance. In the real world of TV
production, creative group sessions can be both daunting and
invaluable to the finished product. This class will attempt to replicate
that experience. And you will finish the workshop with a complete
draft of a 30 minute sitcom script.
