Tired of waiting for the phone to ring with that offer for the perfect starring role? Then do what many stars have done and write or develop your own project! Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Jody Foster, Billy Bob Thornton, Drew Barrymore and Peter Berg are just a few of the actors that jump-started their acting careers by writing and developing scripts for themselves to star in.

 

NOW YOU CAN DO IT TOO!

 

Award-winning filmmaker Lance Dreesen will teach you the techniques and tools necessary to go from single-sentence idea to fully developed treatment, or first draft screenplay, in six short weeks. This is not your typical screenwriting class, which often consist of long lectures about classical story structure or boring debates about how many acts a screenplay should have. 

 

Not an actor? No problem - this workshop is for ANYONE who wants to learn how to write a great script... fast!  If you are ready to make something happen, and have the drive to get it done, you're in the right place! Lance will help you work smarter and faster AS YOU WRITE -- while teaching you how to avoid wasteful outlining and unnecessary drafts.

 

If you are ready for results, and to make your dream a reality, this workshop is for you.
