Screenwriter's Retreat
The Las Brisas Retreat will host a Screenwriting Retreat Weekend - January 14th-16th 2011.
This will be a weekend crammed with "must have" information.
Learn about:
- Outlining your Story - Index card use - Story Structure - Character Development
- Keeping a Flow - Conflict - Time Squeeze - Sub plots - Rewriting...and more.
Learn how to pitch, where to pitch, what to pitch and when to pitch.
Learn new ways to overcome writer's block with right brain games, and try a meditation to focus your mind.
Participate in interactive writing exercises and prepare a 2-page scene that will be read aloud and critiqued.
If you are working on a script - bring it with for some feedback.
It's not all about work - you'll get to play as well. There will be a "Make your own Pizza Party" plus a wine tasting, and there is yoga offered in the mornings - although it is not compulsory.
There are plenty of hikes and bike rides in the area if you prefer.
A fun-filled, informative, relaxing weekend getaway with delicious food served and interesting new friends.
