THE FIRST DRAFT is Singapore’s first year-long professional screenwriting development programme. It combines residential weeks, group meetings and individual consultations with MA Screenwriting tutors from London College of Communication. The call for Year Two is coming up!

If you are interested in screenwriting, THE FIRST DRAFT could be for you! Singapore’s first year-long professional screenwriting development programme, THE FIRST DRAFT kicked off in March 2010 and is now well under way. Feedback on the course has been EXCELLENT and we are very excited about how these scripts will develop over the next 9 months.
