Samm Haillay and Duane Hopkins will share industry knowledge and give you guidance both on your scripts and on how to pitch your projects to potential financiers

A brilliant screenplay is the first and most important building block in the long journey from page to screen. If you have ever wanted to write a screenplay but you don’t know how to begin or you have started writing your screenplay and you are struggling, then this is the course for you.

Samm Haillay and Duane Hopkins are an award winning Producer/Writer-Director team whose films have screened in Cannes and Venice amongst numerous highly regarded festivals. Duane Hopkins was awarded the MEDIA New Talent award in Cannes for his debut feature script. This week they will share industry knowledge as well as giving you guidance on your scripts and some top tips for pitching your projects to potential financiers. The story of their film making partnership will inspire you to pursue yours with renewed vigour and purpose.
