Louise will illustrate that at the core of every amazing film is a great story being told visually. Topics that will be covered during the workshop are approaches to writing a film treatment, developing a story arc, creating characters, building conflict and tension, the rules of format and structure, and tips on accessing your creativity.

During the three-hour workshop—held in Summerside at the Lefurgey Cultural Centre between 1:00 – 4:00pm— participants will also have the opportunity to ask questions regarding any projects that they may have in development.  Come prepared for a stimulating and informative time learning how to get your story straight for film!
