This course teaches students how to write for a variety of media, including video and audio productions, radio, television, slide-tape materials, and other non-narrative uses of media. Students develop research skills as they gather information for their scripts and adapt material from sources, such as brochures, news articles and press releases. Students also develop abilities in planning and analyzing communication situations so they can create proposals, treatments, and storyboards. Some applications include writing scripts for training, public service announcements, corporate and nonprofit projects, informational television and radio, and sales and promotional pieces. This course is offered at the Moon Township campus only.
