Excited to announce that I’ll be a Moderator at the 2024 Austin Film Festival Screenwriter’s Conference in October!
Aug 11, 2024If you are a screenwriter, you must attend the Austin Film Festival Screenwriter’s Conference. This year it is held from October 24-27, 2024 in Austin, TX. You get to listen to some of the most amazing screenwriters of all time. There are agents, managers and show runners as well.
And you’ll get to see me there too! How can you pass that up?
There is no magic formula for success for any writer, but there is magic that happens at AFF when writers of many genres gather and realize that, regardless of their preferred storytelling outlet, it all comes back to the story itself.
A story is a story, for better or worse, and whether people listen to it or watch it unfold on a big screen, a small screen, or a stage, all that matters is that the audience is moved. That’s every writers job. AFF offers you a lot of valuable information from a lot of multi-talented wizards who have cracked their writing racket and have wrestled it to the ground.
The Conference covers basics like:
- researching and editing your story
- creating and funding your film while somehow paying the rent
- working with a writing partner
- facing a blank page on a bad day
- or risking a new direction after established success.
