The course begins by focusing on how to create your sitcom, and to build the most important elements of a show: character, plot, and dialogue. You'll learn about the differences in writing for audience or non-audience, BBC or commercial sector, mass or specialized audiences, radio, an established show, or the American sitcom market. The course ends with valuable information about the commissioning process and who to contact to sell your sitcom.
