SCREENWRITING

We all watch films and series.  Whether it's for entertainment or inspiration, it’s the screenwriter who keeps us engaged throughout the film by crafting a compelling story that involves us emotionally.  If you want to be a storyteller, this course will teach you how to write engaging screenplays to keep your audience captivated.

COACHING

In storytelling, there are many ways to express yourself. Each individual has their own sensitivity to how they see the world, their own personal imagination, and experience. We will explore the different approaches to writing (Aaron Sorkin, Spike Lee, Quentin Tarantino, etc.) so that you can find your true voice.  No matter the approach they all agree in one point: your writing should be personal to you and honest.
