Holland, Matt

Matt Holland is a screenwriter, story editor, and script consultant. His writing credits include short films (Drop Off, Whistleblowers Anonymous), episodic television (Moose TV, Toi & Moi), and feature film (Gone Dark). He recently co-wrote the feature comedy La Tour de Basile for producer Patrick Huard. Matt has also worked as a television content analyst for Telefilm Canada and as manager of development and production for CTV.

Matt can offer an abbreviated version of his screenwriting workshop From Idea to Script to Screen. A lecture would be comprised of an analysis of the screenwriting process, with a focus on personal experience, examples of produced creative material, and prompts from screenplay guides; as well as  an overview of the current local, national and global media landscape, i.e. how streaming services have altered the playing field, new and existing development opportunities, “The Golden Age” of TV, etc. This would be followed by a question & answer period.
