Japanese director Akira Kurosawa noted, "with a good script, a good director can produce a masterpiece, but with a bad script, even a good director can’t possibly make a good film." This course will focus on the art of storytelling, exploring the building blocks of what makes a strong story. Students will study examples in literature, television and cinema, animation, radio and art. Students will have a number of short assignments in these areas but will also work on a semester long story in a medium of their choosing. Recommended Course Background: AS.061.152.
