Lights, Camera, Write: Storytelling Strategies Inspired by Cinema

This seminar explores the intersection of film and creative writing, offering writers the unique opportunity to enhance their narrative skills by drawing on cinematic techniques. Participants will analyze scenes from iconic films to uncover storytelling principles like pacing, character development, dialogue, and visual imagery. By translating these elements into their own writing, attendees will learn to craft compelling, dynamic narratives that resonate with readers much like a powerful film resonates with its audience. Whether you’re a novice writer or a seasoned author, this seminar will provide fresh perspectives and practical tools to elevate your storytelling.

Please note: This class or event is hybrid. Some attendees will be in-person and some will attend online. There may be a limited number of in-person seats available. If you are participating online (using Zoom or a similar live platform), students or attendees should have a stable internet connection.
