Script Breakdown Course

Payment Details:

Pre-sale - Class will be available Summer, 2025

One payment only. Or, 4 interest-free monthly payments through Afterpay or Klara
Payment will be deducted from your Credit Card account automatically and you'll be emailed a receipt from Stripe.

What's Included:

The materials include an unproduced feature-length script, a set of nine script reports that you'll refer to while completing the breakdown, both a blank Excel breakdown form and one that has been partially completed. There is a video that explains the process and leads you in steps through the breakdown, pointing out possible challenges and giving you tips on avoiding problems that may not show up until midway into the pre-production phase of a film.

The storyline covers both a current day environment as well as a historical time period and points out the challenges of having scenes which will have sets that will need to be designed and dressed to work for different time periods.

You get:

Full-length unproduced feature script
8 reports which separate the script into categories by story order, set name, and occurrence
A blank Excel document, pre-formatted for your breakdown
A partially completed breakdown to help you understand the system
A video that describes the process and guides you through a breakdown of the script

In addition, you will also gain access to the Community Lounge which is only for students, where you can connect with other students and ask questions.

Twice a month we have a live Zoom session where you can ask questions or get your drawings evaluated. These are recorded and posted on the website in case you can't attend in person.

What Happens Next?

After you enter your payment details, you'll be taken to a thank you page with further instructions.

Because of the special nature of the class material and proprietary materials refunds will only be offered within 14 days of course registration.

What People Are Saying:

This is an amazing course taught by an industry pro. Randall is an excellent, kind, and patient teacher who somehow manages to cover everything from the construction of a single flat to measuring a cathedral in Florence from just photos. I cannot speak highly enough about this class. Anyone who is serious about a career in set design should be required to take this course.

Garrett Brown

"The Set Design Fundamentals Series was an invaluable part of my Art Department education. It answered my questions about working full-time as a Set Designer and making a career in the entertainment industry. I learned so much about the tools, practices, and technical skills necessary for a successful start in film and TV. I thoroughly enjoyed this course and would recommend it to anyone looking to further their design skills!"

Patricia Witt

"When I started the 12-Week Set Design Fundamentals Series class, I was hoping to learn about the drawings that a Set Designer needs to produce, but I learned much more. This course covered everything: drawings, how to do a site survey, what the set designer's responsibilities are, and their position in the Art Department. My favorite part was learning about what not to do as a set designer. Learning from others' mistakes made me feel more confident in my work process. I started a Set Design job shortly after finishing the class. The class helped me do my first job with confidence. This class is a perfect start for anyone who is beginning a career in Set Design."
