Script writing workshops for t(w)eenagers!
Do you have a tween/teen in the house/family who would love to be mentored as they step into their ‘creative genius’, navigating the world of scriptwriting and bringing out their talents?
I AM BUZZZZIIIIINNGGG! 🐝🐝🐝 to be kicking off ‘The Movie in Me’ - a brand new program that brings together the magic of the film world and discoveries of life coaching!
There are only 10 spots available per cohort. (3 SPACES ALREADY TAKEN so get in quick!).
We’ve all got a story within us just bursting to come out - this is your child’s chance to understand the foundations needed to know themselves as a storyteller, and then create a script that speaks to their truth and vision!
This 8-week course will introduce them to simplified golden nuggets of degree-level scriptwriting processes, whilst simultaneously taking them on a journey of self-discovery wherein they will connect to themselves, their voice, their relationships, and ways of being in the world, in new, exciting ways.
There is nothing quite as rewarding as holding your story in your hand - and I’m speaking from experience having a degree in filmmaking, producing and performing in my first play at age 11, running a videography/photography business, publishing a memoir at age 24, and teaching drama/filmmaking to children through to adults.📔
For the full run-down of what these amazing eight weeks will entail, check out this link and get in touch ASAP!
