2-WEEK WRITERS WORKSHOP
This two-week workshop—for screenwriters, novelists, playwrights, copywriters, and story analysts who are interested in HOW to write a story in serial form for television — offers a new approach by developing an actual TV miniseries entitled VIGAN. At the same time this hands-on workshop shows you how to:
• Develop your own story for a TELE-NOVELA or TELE-SERYE by exploring the timetested structure of the Hero’s Journey
• Define characters and their motivations by using personality systems and creating a psychological basis for their decisions and actions
• Build the plot and subplots based on who the characters are, what they want and their plan of action to get their object of desire and learn how to structure the plot and subplots with the five major plot points that would ensure the story’s dramatic development and to sustain viewer interest and loyalty to the miniseries
• Create a writers group with people who have undergone the same training and who can give you feedback in your current and future writing ventures.
• Write coverage for those who are not necessarily interested in writing a script but would like to learn how to become a story analyst or script reader in their spare time. Hollywood studios and talent agencies are out-sourcing script coverage in the Philippines and this is an opportunity to learn how it is done.
