Last call to see Lew Hunter on Sunday
You don't want to miss this one!
Lew Hunter at ScreenplayLab on March 4th...
'Screenwriting 434' author Lew Hunter on screenwriting. Despite living in a small town in Nebraska, Lew is Chairman Emeritus of the screenwriting department at UCLA. Steven Spielberg has described Lew as "the best screenwriting teacher going". Lew will describe his background and thoughts on screenwriting, then we'll open the dialog to questions from the audience. But first, an actors workshop reading of 25 pages from the new comedy musical screenplay 'Fire Bear'. Think Smokey the Bear meets 'West Side Story'.
NEW LOCATION THIS WEEK. At The First Baptist Church of Beverly Hills, 9025 Cynthia Street (south of Sunset on Doheny), West Hollywood. March 4th, 3pm to 6pm. Mingle starting at 2:30. Free. RSVP at http://screenplaylab.com to get on the guest list.
By the way, Lew Hunter will be at the reading too. Thanks, Lew!
One thing that really sets apart ScreenplayLab is the openness and friendliness of all the people involved. Very different from what many expect in Hollywood. And, we're hands-on. The questions for the speaker are asked by members of the audience, not some moderator. The speakers give their time, the theaters give their space, actors give their time for the workshop reading, and the audience brings a lot by asking good questions to the speaker and making good suggestions for elevating pages read in the workshop.
ScreenplayLab can be exhausting for me, because we run it without funding and on top of all our other work. But, I don't get too tired because it's a joy to get together with such great people. The audience is a key ingredient in what ScreenplayLab accomplishes. I appreciate the kindness and generosity everyone has shown me. It makes ScreenplayLab possible.
Thank you!
Robin
