Classes

TV Writing

Hardfun: TV Writing | Level One

An advanced 8-week intensive class in TV Writing that teaches you not only the techniques and mindset to elevate your writing, but also instills in students the neuroplastic problem solving and creative collaboration tools of dynamic and successful artists and entrepreneurs anywhere. Every student gets to produce a 15-20 min selection of their script as a Narrartive Podcast with professional actors, production and post. All Podcasts will be distributed on the Hardfun Youtube channel in Podcast Feed with the permission of the students. No claims to ownership of the material are made, students retain all rights to the material produced.

There are only 8 slots available in each cohort. Students are asked to submit a logline and summary of the script they hope to work on in the class, and fill out a short form to help us understand their experience, taste and interests. We keep class sizes small to focus on giving individual attention to each student, so acceptance to the program is limited. Any student not selected should not be discouraged from applying for later sessions.
