I have taught numerous classes at the La Veta Library on book/movie adaptations. In the classes I introduce the audience to screen writing as the connection between books and movies.
I am excited about your presentation. What can I bring to make this a meaningful experience?
Thanks, Bob
Hi Bob! I will send your question on to Stacy. Thank you so much for your offer. — Tony
Stacey, The announcement for your workshop lists the dates as June 21 through August 30. That’s 11 two hour sessions. Will the workshop be like a mini seminar or will you be addressing the same material 11 times?
Thanks, Bob
Hi, Bob — Since there is SO much information to impart about screenwriting, each session will be different. The first few will be just the very basics of structure, loglines, how to start a project, etc., then will dive deeper as a workshop for anyone working on an original feature-length project. Discussion will be organic and flow with interests/needs of the group.
