“Author: The Art of Writing”
Screenwriters are cinematic storytellers. The genesis of any film project is an idea or concept that must be fleshed out into a fully formed screenplay deemed worthy of production.
What truly makes the FSI one of the best screenwriting schools is that students are expected to be constantly writing, continually honing their skills to create a compelling film or television script while building a portfolio of professionally written material that runs from film and television to webseries. This approach helps students learn how they can achieve their professional goals.

WHAT MAKES OUR SCREENWRITING PROGRAMS UNIQUE?
Over the course of the year, each student writes screenplay or television "spec" script. As part of a fully integrated program, students explore related areas of filmmaking that help to improve their screenplays and put them into a real-world context. Thus, in addition to writing classes, students study film craft, acting, pitching, and cinema studies, as they apply to screenwriting. Students also write, direct and edit a short digital film or scene from a feature script.
