An intensive film workshop organized by screenwriter, director and script consultant, Kelly Davis (brief bio below) in collaboration with Atelier Nord.

This 3-day course aims to strengthen your scriptwriting abilities and polish your story ideas for film and/or TV scripts. The course looks at classical structural theories, as well as, at more alternative forms of storytelling. Through group and direct 1-to-1 feedback, Kelly Davis will help you question and improve your characters and their arcs, the plot and subplots of your story, scene-by-scene design, as well as, the overall design and structure of your story. We will also discuss how to create unforgettable characters, comedic vs. dramatic storytelling, character-driven story structures and mythological narrative forms applied to traditional and experimental storytelling.

Eligible participants should come with an idea for a short film, feature film, TV series or sitcom.

Please apply with a half-page summary or synopsis (maximum) of the story for your script idea and a recent CV (maximum 1 page). No previous screenwriting or filmmaking experience is necessary. Applicants will be accepted based on the uniqueness and brilliance of their story idea. Writing teams of up to 2 people are also welcome to apply.
