Screenplay Writing and Production
Start to Finish
We are excited to offer this
pair of informative and fun classes for writers, actors, producers and
creative’s in the story telling genre. Ever thought I would love to tell my
story in a film or web series with my own screenplay? Have you wondered what
really goes into bringing a story to life from concept to finished product to
marketing to the general public!
In this set of classes we will
take you on a journey of learning the ins and outs of creating and completing a
screenplay.
Once we have written the
screenplay we will then move forward and actually create a short 3 to 5 minute
film to be screened at the Actors Gym Studio on the final day.
Whether you attend just the
writing segment, the production segment or both it is guaranteed to be
incredibly informative and enriching to anyone who participates!
