Great course. Learned a great deal about script writing. Much of the peer feedback was very helpful and useful, but a small portion of the peers were did not seem to be very engaged or helpful.

Very enjoyable course! However, I think that it would have been nice to have some more professional viewing of our work, since several of us were taking in this information for the first time.

Would like a little bit more about how to protect my intellectual rights. In addition, I would like to know how to properly create a series bible.

Great course that was well paced, in helping me gather my ideas on paper and completing a first episode for my series concept--- Thank you

It's a great course that helped me learn a lot. I wish the grading was depended on on more people other than course colleagues.

Thank You

Nicely done and it helps to chop up your screenplay in acts. This is a good course if you want to avoid writers block.

a great course to motivate you to wrire. The negative point is just checking the assignments by other learners.

Does a good job of outlining the basics of a screenplay. I wish it went more in depth with all aspects of it.

Quite good introductory course on script writing, enjoyed writing my first pilot episode of my series

I found the coursework to be adequate for a beginner yet still challenging. Rewarding experience.

I enjoyed the class. Wish there was a little more feedback from a mentor or instructor.

Le falta más contenido académico en los videos o x escrito. Es demasiado autodidacta

I enjoyed it! It gave me the introductory skills I needed to begin script writing.

The tag in my certificate is missing. If anyone knows why please let me know.

Good course, pushes students to be creative and step out of the box!

The course is perfect but it can be little more descriptive

It was good, but peer grades can sometimes be biased.

Love the project orientation of class

I enjoyed the class perfectly,thanks

really really nice and helpfull.

It's not bad, but there is not much teaching in this course. It is essentially a series of assignments (write a pitch, write a logline, etc). But before each assignment you have a two minute video where the assignment description is read aloud. Essentially. The videos just give a definition of what you are supposed to submit and occasionally a justification as to why teaching script writing is kind of a waste of time.

I agree that like most things you learn more from writing rather than studying. And this course isn't bad so since this is the only script writing series on here it's fine. But I expected an actual course with maybe a breakdown of an example or two for each submission. Or maybe some theory.

For example, describing that there can be tension between characters because of a long standing fued, like between siblings, or it can be triggered by a specific disagreement, or... whatever. There are plenty of things that can be put into a video that would stimulate students and probably make the script writing easier.

All that said if peers actually review my work (to be determined) and the reviews are genuine, then it will still probably be a worthwhile experience.

A good place to provide the structure and discipline for your first script writing endeavour. However, the most fundamental element is the peer review feedback, in order to adapt and develop your work. This was more or less absent from the course, with the yes/no grading system and 'optional' written feedback, most fellow students wrote nothing or simply a single line of no constructive value. This may be because you must read and assess 5 peer projects and I suppose some people feel it is too time consuming. Also, the outdated videos still promise feedback from the course creator for the top 5 highest peer graded projects, but this was only the case the first time the course ran. I felt the videos themselves didn't offer any real 'lessons' or insight into scriptwriting, again it was really just the enforced deadline that was useful, if you have the personal discipline and integrity you could achieve the same without the course.

I understood the point that in script writing matters more than theory but I don't think that it's right that all marks I got I received from other with me with zero feedback from lectors and teachers.

Definitely I wouldn't pay for sertificate but as first step and making some ready draft for further polishing the script this course was enough. So from one side it helped me to move forward with my idea but on other hand I didn't get any professional feedback and advices from teacher. There were some very useful comments from other students but I also need some help from people who are real professionals in it.

Participants aren’t required to give written feedback and so most of the time they skip that part. You’re left with essentially an up or down vote on most critiques without much context as to why and then asked to revise based on that, which is difficult to do. The helpful tips for each assignment are on the discussion board but they really should be part of the instructions because they are basically more comprehensive instructions. The videos are helpful encouragement. The deadline schedule is useful to keep you on track.

Thanks for the course it was modren and useful for begginers like me, but there are some stuff which I had to look up on the internet because the course didn't provide, like the formatting and using of element like transition which never been taught in this course, the cuts and others...., besides letting a peer reviewing your work is just inefficien, I have got bad reviews for people who didn't read my script at all and even if there was a mistake a peer cannot find it cause he is just a begginer.
