More on SCREENWRITING IS FILMMAKING:

‘To write for the unique medium of the screen, you need to be as engaged with the theory and practice of film as you are with words. SCREENWRITING IS FILMMAKING provides a wealth of insights for new and experienced writers alike on the historical, theoretical and practical essentials of screenwriting. With analyses drawn from a wide range of classical and contemporary films, alongside case studies and practical exercises, this book encourages the development of craft skills and a personal voice through the writing of short and feature screenplays. You will learn how to develop your screenplay from idea to final draft; apply the techniques of narrative, structure and visual language; build rounded and convincing characters; craft compelling scenes through dialogue and sub-text and maintain a meaningful and lasting creative practice.’

Books will be available to purchase in cash on the evening, priced £15.
