Screenwriting for Digital Media

Literature Live! and Avid Learning present a fascinating live masterclass with Screenwriter and Director Satyanshu Singh as a part of the virtual week – From Silver Screen to Your Screen – that promises to be a multiplex of film appreciation covering diverse aspects from archiving to critiquing, from documentaries for social change to screen writing for digital platforms. In this session, Satyanshu will elaborate on the various creative processes involved in writing episodic content and how it differs from writing for feature films, while drawing a comparison between the two. He will also share the industry-accepted procedure of pitching your ideas and content to producers and developing them further for OTT platforms. Satyanshu will also draw upon his experience having worked with numerous mainstream Indian films including Udaan (2010) and Ferrari Ki Sawaari (2011) as well as the 2014 National Award-Winning short film Tamaash.
