Part-time courses in practical tools for creative screenwriting

Attendance on Writers' Gym I is not compulsory

The Writers' Gym aims to stimulate ideas through being playful. Over eight weeks, each course is designed to seek ways to unblock, gain writing habits, develop those ideas and find your voice.

In Writers' Gym I each class consists of a mixture of exercises, games and explanations on different aspects of screenwriting. These exercises might seed new ideas but also aim at opening the participants' minds to new ways of thinking.

Writers' Gym II focuses on the development of a single feature project for each participant. In addition working on their own first drafts, each writer will be assigned the role of script editor of another project on the course.

Deadline for applications: Monday 18th August 2008
