ZOOM Write Funny! Comedy Workshop

Service Description

5 x 2 hour sessions on Zoom Wednesday 11th September - 9th October 2024 7pm-9pm UK time/ 8pm-10pm European time 11am-1pm Pacific time (PDT) 2pm-4pm Eastern time (EDT) £135 (repeat fee £125) On this course you will: - hang out with a friendly bunch of comedy writers - get expert input into your writing - learn new writing techniques and finesse old favourites across a structured five weeks - develop your existing project and/or be inspired for your next one! You’re welcome to join it if you’re new to working with me. It’s also an ideal follow on to previous online courses I offer. Plus it’s different every time so you can come back as many times as you like. You might have a specific project you are working on or you can simply come along for inspiration. You might be working on sketches, sitcom or comedy drama script, or even a movie script, a play or a radio show. You can nominate clips from TV shows from sitcom to comedy drama, comedy movies, sketches and more. Each week we’ll explore a selection of comedy writing techniques inspired by clips you’ve shared and related to what the group are working on. In response, you write a scene or a sketch every week. This can be a stand alone piece, it can be part of a longer narrative. We'll analyse classic scenes and sketches, from TV shows and movies in any style you want to explore. Each session in the first half we go over the scripts you have submitted that week. They are read aloud in the session. It can be so helpful to hear your work read aloud – or to read it aloud with others. You get a different perspective on it and can see issues and opportunities with it that you can't necessarily spot on the page. Once the scene is read we go into analysis and discussion where you get immediate helpful and inspiring feedback.
