Euroscript: Your words in their mouths with Anji Loman Field

Tutor Anji Loman Field, Friday 22 September 2023, 10.30am – 5.00pm

What’s the Story?

A one-day workshop on writing dialogue for the screen

Even the most fantastic story, bursting with colourful characters, is unlikely to see the light of day if the script isn’t working as well as it should.

This is a practical boot-camp for aspiring screenwriters, drilling down into what makes for great dialogue in film & TV.  We’ll explore how to write distinctive lines that fly off the page and really bring your characters to life.

You’ll learn to develop “a good ear for dialogue”, taking inspiration from both real life and the screen. We’ll delve into techniques that will help you elevate your dialogue-writing skills so that your scripts can become a pleasure to read and are more likely to get picked up.

It’ll be a fun, informative and dynamic day with practical exercises throughout and each participant will have a chance to hear their own dialogue read out loud, when we all take part in a table-read towards the end of the day.

WHO’S IT FOR?

New and developing screenwriters.
