MA Writing for Script and Screen (online)

Our course advisors will guide you through the entire application process, including answering any questions you have about the course. Upon starting, you can connect with your tutors via weekly webinars and through email, and turn to our student advisors for all non-academic questions. 

Up to twice a year*, you can choose to attend various scriptwriting-related events, which may be held digitally or physically. The cost of all tickets will be entirely paid for by Falmouth University, but please note that you’ll need to cover your own travel and accommodation for physical events. 

Previous events have included a visit to the Screenwriting Research Network Conference in Milan, where our students had the opportunity to participate in sessions on adapting a movie into a TV series, writing female characters, writing comedy and screenwriting history.  

*Please note that given the variability in participant numbers and the specific nature of planned events, it may not always be possible to organise them for every course every year.

This course is affiliated with The Script Department, a production company run by screenwriters, for screenwriters. Created by university academics, The Script Department’s scripted podcast regularly features student work and provides the opportunity to partner with alumni as well.
