Tuesday, November 5th
Park Auditorium
7pm
Writer/Director Mason Richards will hold a public lecture on how to create compelling 3-dimensional characters in your script which is essential in crafting a good story for your films. Based on the teachings of Hollywood screenwriting guru Robert McKee and examples of successful award-winning films made by students of cinema, Richards will dissect and discuss the key elements in developing characters who will ultimately drive your story, and also examine the relationship between story, structure and truth-telling in the screenwriting process. There will be a Q & A after for participants to engage with specific questions about projects and the process of crafting narrative voice in filmmaking.
