Students will develop an original concept for their own TV situation comedy series. This includes pitching their idea, creating characters and submitting a beat sheet and outline for workshop review. We will also create a "leave behind" pitching bible that will include character bios and loglines for future episodes, among other items. Once the concept and characters are sufficiently fleshed out, the process of writing the pilot will begin. Each student will complete a first draft of his/her pilot.
