The Nutshell Technique® is designed to be easy to use.
But the best way to master the method is learning from its author.
Our online classes cover the art and craft of writing feature feature screenplays, television pilots, and collaborating in a writer’s room environment. With the Nutshell Technique®, you can be confident your story’s structure is set up to satisfy audiences. Beyond that, Jill covers everything from formatting to action to dialogue.
Courses from Jill’s school, The Screenplay Workshop with Jill Chamberlain, are 10-week intensives. Classes meet live on Zoom. Join and get feedback on your nutshells, beat sheets, and scripts. You can also audit the course to learn the ropes without having to participate or watch live.

TV Writing
Television pilots might differ from features in the length and function, but the principles of great storytelling remain the same. Craft a compelling series opener with this course.
