India

Screenwriting is related to film and TV where creativity and newness is the key to making your work known and successful. Where do we see distance learning as the foundation of such an exposure and development of creativity that we recommend a course through distance? I do not recommend a course of this type and kind and stature from any institution of the world through distance.
It is advised to dare to do this course from distance if only some platform to learn the same way and under expert supervision is already available or the person has been learning/has learnt the screenwriting, creative writing and now want to give it a certification so as to get some job which needs such a certificate as eligibility.
Distance mode has its own limitations and that's why we do not recommend that. Besides, Indian Distance Education has not reached that level of perfection where such courses can be made worth doing.
