MA Screenwriting

1 Year On Campus Masters Program

New York Film Academy Los Angeles

Program Overview

While actors might command the attention of the press and the director is credited with bringing a production together, it is the screenwriter who possesses what might be the most memorable element of all: the story. After all, it s the story that keeps us binge-watching our favorite TV shows, and it s the story that allows us to invest in characters and in what is happening on screen. Completed in one academic year of two semesters, the MA Screenwriting program at New York Film Academy (NYFA) is built around academic studies of the craft of writing, but also teaches students how to take a single idea and transform it into a compelling story that will resonate with audiences. To better understand the elements that work together to make a great movie or show, students examine the conventions of storytelling in Hollywood feature films through close watching of classic films across numerous genres, studying the storytelling tools associated with each type of film.
