About This Course

Have you ever wondered what it would take to produce your own movie. From 18-year film producer and award-winning screenwriter, Frank Zanca comes a fully expansive course focusing on scriptwriting, script structure, breaking down a script, budgeting, scheduling, and working with the unions. Frank is the producer of Star Trek: Renegades, Six Gun Savior, starring Eric Roberts & Martin Kove, and the five-time award-winning sci-fi pilot - Renegades: Ominara.

He has worked on projects that have aired on Showtime, Hulu, Hallmark, BET, TUBI, and more. With this course, you will learn how to write for a low budget while keeping the quality high and making certain that your characters are all written well. After you've written your screenplay, now what.

From there Frank will take you on a journey of script structure ready for shooting as well as how to take apart the script down to its basic elements. What crew do you need and how many days will you need to complete the film. And ultimately, how much money do you need to make the film that you want to make.

You will find all of this out and more in the 6. 5 informative class where no film class has gone before, including on-set experiences that only Frank can tell.
