DAZZLING DIALOGUE + VISUAL WRITING
Charles Harris (UK)

Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd November
10.00 to 16.00

DAZZLING DIALOGUE

Dialogue is crucial to making good cinema and TV - and yet screenwriters all too often allow their dialogue let them down.
In this workshop we will help you strengthen your dialogue and find your individual voice, showing clips and script extracts from the best screenwriters, using exercises to liberate your writing skills and giving feedback on your work.

Subjects included in the course:


* The rules of film and TV dialogue

* Dialogue as action

* Revealing character through dialogue

* Creating subtext

* The myths of voice-over

* Unconventional dialogue patterns


VISUAL WRITING

Tune up your visual storytelling skills.
A successful screenwriter must know how to create cinematic impact on the page, developing a distinctive and personal descriptive style for film and TV. But exciting, visual scripts are very rare and even experienced writers can fail to find the right words.
In this workshop you will learn to use picture and sound to fire the emotions of both reader and audience, to create rich and exciting visuals in the eye of the reader and strong screen atmosphere and drama.

Subjects included in the course:


* Finding your emotional key

* Psychology in pictures

* Tricks for creating pace

* Bringing places and characters to life

* Visualising scripts that sell
