The Full Script Workshop
This workshop will consist of seven writers each submitting a full screenplay to each member in advance of the workshop day, with plenty of time for each participant to read each other's work. Gordy will also read the screenplays in advance and provide brief written feedback on each screenplay.
On the workshop day, we will go over each screenplay in depth, providing each writer with a constructive, specific reaction from the group on their current draft, as well as the suggestions on what they should address in the next rewrite.
Each writer will leave with great sense of what they can do specifically to improve their screenplay, as well a better awareness of where they might properly develop as a professional screenwriter as a whole. Not only do you learn from the focus placed on your screenplay by the workshop, but also by the examination of the seven other scripts of the day.
This workshop invites all levels of writers and all stages of the developed script.
Audit Option:
Do you want to participate, but do not have a screenplay to submit? You can attend without submitting written material and still participate in the discussion by auditing the workshop. The fee to audit is $45.
Gordy Hoffman, the Sundance award-winning writer/director (Love Liza, A Coat of Snow) and founder of the BlueCat Screenplay Competition, returns to Washington, D.C. to lead a screenwriting workshop on Saturday, July 31st, from 9:00am-6:00pm.
