The Script Factory present:
Is this a film idea? Learn Screenplay Analysis
ICA Brandon Room Wed 11 Mar 6-7.30pm
£10 / £9 ICA and BEV members
An intensive session to help writers and producers evaluate the feasibility of an idea, and find approaches to realise full dramatic potential of a screenplay.
This session offers a guide to analysing the strengths and weaknesses of a film idea. A story may seem to have a solid dramatic structure but what more does it need in order to justify its place on the big screen? Or a scenario might sound intriguing but is there enough substance in the idea to generate ninety minutes of compelling drama?
Based on the process devised by The Script Factory to teach script readers how to assess screenplays, this intensive session aims to help writers and producers evaluate objectively the feasibility of an idea, and provides useful approaches for developing the full dramatic potential of a screenplay.
