Agents, producers, showrunners and execs all say the same thing. They are looking for unique and distinct voices.
So even with a solid pitch, an enthusiastic script request and an obvious love for your concept, the result can still be a PASS from the reader. Why? We are looking for a more unique and authentic voice.
In this one day seminar, Bob Schultz shows you how to understand what your unique and authentic voice could be, shares tools to reveal it, and then zeroes in on how to add it to your work. How to write with sizzle and substance, while retaining YOUR authenticity.
By the end of the day you will
Identify your foundational voice by zooming out on your stories and passions
Know how to apply that voice to the words on the page, in dialogue and scene description
Understand what makes YOUR voice unique, and why it makes everything you write jump off the page
Write with greater fearlessness, and leave with new scenes written in your authentic voice
Part 1: Finding Your Voice (The Big Picture)
What voice really is, why the industry craves it, and how your stories, passions and experiences reveal it.
Outcome: a clear sense of your foundational voice as a writer
Part 2: Voice On The Page (The Nitty Gritty)
Going micro. Word choice, rhythm, dialogue and scene description, and how each one carries your voice.
Outcome: practical tools to bring your voice into every line
Part 3: Writing Without Fear (Authenticity)
Writing from an authentic voice takes courage. How to get out of your own way and tell it your way.
Outcome: the confidence to write the script only you could write
Part 4: Your Voice In Action (Putting It Into Practice)
Creating new scenes from your own stories, written in your authentic voice.
Outcome: new pages for your project with a voice that sizzles
This isn't about swapping out words with a thesaurus. It's about leaving with new tools, insight into what makes your writing sizzle, and the swagger to tell your story in your voice.
