About The Workshop

Introduction To Screenwriting

A workshop for anyone who has ever wanted to write a script: actors who want to create their own material, and writers who dream of bringing their stories to the screen!

Join screenwriter Michelle Muldoon for a day of practical tools and tips for the budding screenwriter. Stock your toolbox with the components of story structure, character introduction, dialogue, and scene direction. Learn why the details of the film you love were found on the page thanks to the screenwriter. Come ready to learn, share, participate and write in a day filled with instruction, produced screenplay examples, and writing exercises. This is a participatory workshop.

Michelle’s style is practical, to the point, and current. I can say I learned more about screenwriting in two days than a year in film school.” — C. M. Sampang: Writer

This is a super fun and inclusive course – I recommend it! Even if you don’t think you’re a screenwriter, it’s a fun and supportive environment to see what you can come up with.” — H. Hawthorn Doyle: TV Director (30+ credits)

Michelle, your passion for screenwriting shines through and is infectious. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us… This workshop has been so useful, and I’ve been left wanting more.“— Z. Pacheva: Story Editor (writer), CBC’s Strays and Kim’s Convenience (2021)
