Pulling Premise (8 weeks)

This class focuses on using tools like monologues to craft premise-driven scenes -- the building blocks of a solid longform set. You'll strengthen your skills in starting scenes with clear ideas that set the tone, while reinforcing the essentials of building a grounded setup (aka a base reality with a where, who, what) and honest authentic emotional responses. We'll practice revisiting and expanding scenes with multiple beats by exploring and heightening.
