Series and web series are increasingly dominating our screens. At the crossroads between different narrative formats, how are they created? In this workshop, you will learn the differences between linear and fragmented works, the various styles and structures, and the basics of writing this type of fiction. The course will be based on Florence Lafond’s experiences as a screenwriter and director.
The workshop will be given in French but questions may be asked in English.

Florence Lafond
Florence Lafond is a screenwriter and director. She co-wrote the series Je voudrais qu’on m’efface, adapted from the novel by Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette and directed by Éric Piccoli. This project earned her the Gémeaux Award for Best Writing for a Digital Drama Series and was presented at the Canneséries festival in 2021.
A finalist in the 2020 Cours écrire ton court competition with her short film Jusqu’à ce que tu meures, she also received a special mention from La Forge—an initiative of Netflix and Québec Cinéma—for the writing of her first feature film, currently in development at Micro_Scope.
She is also co-writing the adaptation of Kim Thúy’s novel Em into a feature-length animated film, which she is co-writing with Valérie Beaugrand-Champagne. The project was recently supported by a development grant from SODEC
