Billy Marshall-Stoneking has an extraordinary background for the lecturer in Screenwriting at AFTRS – poet, traveller in the Western Desert, prosewriter, playwrite, feature script editor… he’s running a course for the Open Program in Melbourne. Will it be repeated elsewhere?
COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Drama of Screenwriting is a journey into the world of CHARACTER and STORY. It offers an exploration of the building blocks of DRAMA as revealed in the film SCENE.
This four-day workshop provides an intensive practical approach to the development of dramatic characters and dramatic action. Sessions will be driven by scenes and scene work provided by the storyteller/participants. It will involve hands-on writing, acting and editing of dramatic scenes.
