Join this interactive and fun way to learn the tricks of screenwriting. Gain invaluable feedback on film pitches from award-winning screenwriter/producer Catherine Ann Jones. Focus will be on story structure, rewriting your proposal and story, character development, point of view, and how to focus your story, how to transpose one form of narrative into a workable screenplay.
Learn from an acclaimed Hollywood screen and television writer who has taught graduate screenwriting at USC Film School in Los Angeles. Film, whether narrative or documentary, requires an emotional response from reader and audience. Learn how to structure your story in order to successfully realize your film project while serving soul.
Catherine offers an integrative approach to writing, combining solid craft with experiential inner discovery. No other writing workshop offers the solid craft to guarantee a good story along with the intangible inner dimensions of writing. As she says, the transformation of good writing depends on making it one’s own from within.
We’re delighted to have Catherine leading her first workshop.
