"Rich's workshop enlightens and clarifies the story development process...It's like a whole semester of film school packed into one day and a heck of a lot cheaper."
– Tom DeSanto, Producer of X-Men, Transformers I and II

One of the US’ most esteemed writing tutors, Richard Krevolin, will be holding a special one-day event on 10/10/09. Unlike all the other seminars on offer, this is not a lecture. This is an intense, private workshop where Prof. Krevolin spends almost an hour with each individual to help them develop a story they are working on.  Neither is it limited to screenwriters; novelists and playwrights are equally welcome with their projects or ideas to develop.

Due to time constraints, the class is limited to 8 people, so book early to avoid disappointment.

About Richard Krevolin: Richard Krevolin is an author, playwright, screenwriter and teacher. A graduate of Yale University, Richard went on to earn a master’s degree in screenwriting at UCLA's School of Cinema-Television, and a master's degree in playwriting and fiction from USC. From 1990 - 2002, Richard taught both undergraduate and graduate screenwriting classes at the USC School of Cinema/TV as well as UCLA Film School, Ithaca and Pepperdine. Under his guidance, his students have sold film scripts and TV shows to Universal, Paramount, Dreamworks and numerous other studios and production companies.

What former students are saying:

"I learned a huge amount from Rich's advice on my story outline. He provided incisive analysis in our workshop and showed us how to keep our stories moving, while respecting our material. All presented with humour and inimitable American energy. Beware - his enthusiasm for storytelling is catching."

- Penny Macleod, former attendee

"Instead of reading books about screenwriting, learn from the master first hand. Rich can teach you so much in a short time it will make your head spin and your inspiration soar."

- Simon Rose, writer and executive producer of The Flying Scotsman

"Rich Krevolin isn't JUST a screenwriting guru.  He is a master storyteller and an incisive, brilliant coach who motivates with a contagious passion for the written word and a dead-on sense of story development.  He can flat-out change your writing life forever, whatever your genre."

Kathy Copas, former attendee
