REQUIREMENTS

Fiction Advanced Film Production Scripts:
Submitted scripts may not exceed 8 pages in length (though the length of the final production scripts may be as long as the instructor deems necessary, not to exceed 12 minutes TRT)

Though any student in the Media Arts program may submit a script to the script hopper, only writer(s) who have completed TMA 241 will be eligible to participate in the TMA 473 Fiction AFP course.
