Anthologies

What do K-Pop Demon Hunters, Star Wars, and The Hunger Games have in common? They all started as great ideas, that were turned into awesome stories, then into unbelievable movies. If you have a great movie idea, here's your chance to get busy writing it down. Make your story jump off the page and onto the screen!

We'll show you how to write a mini-script just like the professionals that includes scene headings, dialogue, transitions, and camera shots. You'll work with your fellow screenwriters to get and give suggestions as you all write the next summer blockbuster. Ideas for action, comedy, drama or anything in between are welcome! At the end of the session, you'll bring your film to life, acting it out with your classmates in front of an audience packed with your family and friends.

¿Hay algo que te importe demasiado? ¿O una historia inolvidable que te encante contar a la gente? ¿Un momento que salió un poco (o muy) mal? Tal vez sea por la cicatriz que te quedó en el hombro, por una extraña aventura que comenzó cuando te perdiste en un concierto, o por la primera vez que te enamoraste del anime. Este taller trata de convertir esos momentos en ensayos personales que los lectores no puedan dejar de lado.

Los ensayos personales tienen sus raíces en la vida real: tus obsesiones, tus accidentes, tu «¿por qué hice eso?» historias. En este taller, aprenderemos cómo tomar una experiencia o pasión real y convertirla en una narrativa convincente con una voz clara, una estructura sólida y un sentido claro del significado. Los ensayos pueden ser divertidos, incómodos, emotivos o ambas cosas, pero el objetivo es siempre el mismo: contar una historia real que lleve al lector a alguna parte y lo deje pensando.

If you can’t wait to turn the page, the writer has succeeded in telling you a great story. What does it take to develop characters, settings, dialogue, and plot elements that have you on the edge of your seat? This workshop answers those questions and more! We’ll breakdown the parts of fiction writing each week and test out what we’ve learned with some on-the-spot writing. You’ll work with your peers, too — giving advice and feedback, while hearing what they have to say about your work.

Not only does this workshop make you a better writer, but when you understand the process, it makes you appreciate your favorite writers even more. Don’t leave us on the edge of our seats — register now for this workshop!
