ScriptAcademy has been training film and series writers for years. In practice, these screenwriters receive feedback from professionals, whom we call Story Editors here. Story Editors work not only on scripts, but on the entire process, from idea to editing and publicity. Whether you are a 'good' Story Editor depends not only on your knowledge, analysis, and creativity, but also on the way you communicate professionally.

The course offers insight into the skills of Story Editors – such as analysis, selection, pitching, catching, and editing – while focusing on professional communication in a safe environment. Effective communication is the key to success in a creative process. How do you present your analysis so that creatives can work with it?

This course is for professionals who work (or want to work) as Story Editors: creative producers, dramaturges, script editors, script coaches, consultants, and graduates in Film and Television Studies with practical experience.
