                  Description

                  This course is an introduction to the UCB philosophy on sketch comedy, specifically using "the game" to write short comedic scenes. Each week students will engage in writing exercises that will explore different sketch formats. Students will be exposed to different methods for turning funny ideas into even funnier written sketches. Students will leave the class with an understanding of popular sketch formats and a portfolio of writing.

                  No prior sketch writing experience is necessary -- the only requirement for this class is a desire to write and learn. Students should have access to a computer, preparing sketches for presentation in every class. If you don't have access to a suitable tablet or computer, email [email protected] for possible solution
