Each fall in the third year, one section of the portfolio directing classes is dedicated to a collaboration project between Graduate Dramatic Writing and Film students.

The goal of the class is to create an on-going exchange between writer and director that allows for the development of a short film project from conception through all phases of revision. Students are assigned to directing/writing teams.  Each team develops a project together from inception of the idea, through first draft and all subsequent revisions. These revisions are dedicated to improving story, dialogue, character and location. Scripts are budgeted, cast and in the 11th and 12th week of the semester, the movies are shot and then edited.
