Screenwriting is an essential element of the creative process. During this 12 hour workshop you will be encouraged to structure your ideas, take a personal point of view and develop your narrative style. Particular attention will be paid to the validity of the characters and the dialogues. This course immerses you in the heart of the practice while promoting your reflection. Time will be allocated to discuss your own projects and study how to integrate these techniques into your film.

Workshop is given in French but questions may be asked in English.

You can send a page describing your draft scenario to services@mainfilm.qc.ca before the start of the workshop.
