SUMMARY:Making a Scene: A Screenwriting Workshop [Live & Online]
DESCRIPTION:The devil is in the details\, and never is that more true than in the movies. The single most important building block to a successful screenplay is a scene\, so in this workshop we will explore how to write a great one. \nWe will discuss how to give each scene a strong arc\, making sure that it pushes the overall story forward\, while revealing character through action and dialogues. We will discuss how to deal with exposition\, character descriptions\, action\, formatting and finally how to write believable and entertaining dialogues. Participants will workshop scenes from their projects\, learning what makes a scene great and what to do to make it even better The workshop runs for 4 weeks\, two hours per session. \nWho Should Take This Workshop? \nThis workshop is open to any experience level. Small groups ensure that each student has their voice heard and their needs met. Whether you’re looking to connect over shared interests\, develop your craft\, or looking for feedback on a project\, this is the workshop for you. \nWiebke von Carolsfeld is an award-winning writer and filmmaker\, who has directed three critically acclaimed theatrical feature films (Marion Bridge\, STAY\, The Saver)\, Her films have played at festivals around the world (TIFF\, Rotterdam (competition)\, Karlovy Vary\, Sydney\, Pusan etc)\, winning many awards including Best First Feature at TIFF. Claremont\, her first novel\, was published to much acclaim in the fall of 2019. The German edition\, by Kiepenheuer&Witsch\, is forthcoming. \nPlease Note \nLive and participatory\, these video conference workshops are limited to 4-8 participants\, to ensure everyone gets the most out of each session.
