Cut the Crap and Write That Damn Screenplay Screenwriting Workshop

Get motivated to stop thinking about that script you've been planning and start writing it. Author Nicholas Iandolo walks you from dissecting the fears and self-conscious excuses that keep you from writing, to blazing a trail through your story and beyond! In this writing-intensive class, Nick presents:

* What are the five types of “BS” Writers and how not to be one of them
* How to bend the rules of genre to your will
* How to craft a powerhouse logline and a kick-ass title that will focus your writing before you write the script!
* The difference between badass character archetypes and cheap-ass character stereotypes--and how to create a memorable cadre of characters
* The Three Ps of character development
* The Three Cs of story structure
* The Three Ss of action and dialogue
* A cutting the crap practical THREE-Stage approach to writing that first draft
* And how to solve a plethora of screenwriting problems

Nick will not only be teaching his unique motivational concepts on screenwriting (and writing in general) but also facilitating Hollywood-style story-pitching exercises.
