Warren Etheredge Workshop

• Sunday, June 5th
• The Media Center in Ashford
• Time: 2pm-3:30pm

Warren Etheredge is the founder of The Warren Report, an influential film industry tip sheet and film fan club dedicated to the empowering notion that "smarter audiences make better movies!" Etheredge is president and head of development for Lockspring Pictures and served for six years as curator of Bumbershoot's 1 Reel Film Festival, the nation's best-attended celebration of short cinema. He has written and directed more than 40 plays off- and off-off-Broadway, penned five books and several short films, and written countless magazine articles on film and related topics.

RIFF is pleased to have Warren back this year.

DO Make A Scene!
Structure and character provide the foundation for a good screenplay, but you must still build beautifully upon the base. In ninety minutes, Warren Etheredge explains and explores the craft of drafting a compelling scene - when to start, how to exit, what to say, how to say it and how to ensure that conflict escalates as the plot evolves.
