ASK & DISCUSS INDEX

I'm not familiar with the exact courses, but a good question to ask is what features alumni have had produced? Some writing courses are deep into theory but don't produce commercially viable scripts. Depends what you really want from a course.

If you're looking for that Hollywood break, for under a tenner there is a book 'writing movies for fun and profit' (the 'fun and' is crossed out throughout the book!). The style gets wearing in places, but the content is generally very good. And the authors wrote films grossing over $1.5Bn. They're quite pragmatic. Might be a useful balance/addition to your arsenal!

David,

they are all very good the exciting treatment, the wrte a feature weekend and I've also attend some the script development evening hey are very good value - i might might wel enter the script development competition for end of march which is also good value. Some of he eurosript tutors even attend the london screenwriter's festival which is very good if you can afford price is higher that last year.

I have attended quite a few Euroscript courses over the years and I can strongly recommend them.
They have always been very welcoming - which is great when you're starting out - and are very knowledgeable both about writing and about the industry as a whole.
I also found their courses great for networking and made friends there that have led on to some very useful contacts.
