About the Event
Storytelling applied to film or TV is one of the most exciting mediums to explore. This interactive presentation and workshop takes students through how to structure a short film script, including plotting, character development, and dialogue, along with examples. Students are then separated into groups to plot, plan, and write a short film script (time allowing).
About Andrew Buckley
Andrew Buckley is a film school-educated writer, which means he's spent most of his life with no money and a strong opinion about bad movies. Today, he's a traditional and self-published novelist of rather silly, yet enjoyable speculative fiction for all ages, a comic book writer, screenwriter, podcaster, creator, and keynote speaker. He has a terrible habit of writing and speaking with a humorous and satirical slant despite being asked politely on numerous occasions to "please stop doing that."
