Screenwriting Seminars

STORY TOUR ASIA (PHILIPPINES) 2011 English Seminars and Workshops

Anyone has the potential to write great stories

The seminars and workshops not only introduces participants to the principles of successful storytelling but it gives participants solid grounding on how to craft engaging characters and plots. As blockbuster writer Raz De La Torre proves, “you don’t have to be a film major to succeed as a writer.”


Learn to write memorable stories that resonate with the broadest possible audience.

The seminars and workshops showcase acclaimed Philippines writers such as Ricky Lee and Raz de La Torre, broadcast executives Raymund Dizon and head trainer Amor Olaguer, and international screen artists, writer Luke Devenish and script editor Karel Segers. They made successful careers out of writing and will give you the inside scoop on how they created stories that connect with audiences on both an emotional and intellectual level.

Learn the language both understood by the people who green light a film

Broadcast executives Raymund Dizon and Producer Amor Olaguer share their insight into the very heart of the business of screenwriting. Acclaimed motivational script coach and producer Karel Segers tops off the event by giving you a step-by-step guideline for effective plot structure and characterization in your own writing”.
