PEI Writers’ Guide to offer Screenwriting 101 workshop at the Haviland Club

PEI Writers’ Guide to offer Screenwriting 101 workshop

On November 23, the PEI Writers’ Guild will host a screenwriting workshop, the first of a new “Crossing Over” series the Guild is hosting this year. Entitled “Screenwriting 101,” the workshop will be facilitated by Louise Lalonde of Louise Lalonde Productions, a Prince Edward Island media company.

“The idea for a Crossing Over series came from the desire to explore genre transition,” explains PEI Writers’ Guild president Mo Duffy Cobb. “Over the next few months, the Guild will host workshops in screenwriting, playwriting, and songwriting—exploring the techniques of writing in each genre.”

Duffy Cobb said the workshops will appeal to those who wish to break into a particular genre, but who may not be familiar with genre-specific writing conventions. “There might be those who’ve written a novel or poetry and who have a desire to try screenwriting, but who aren’t familiar with the format or criteria required.” But Duffy Cobb also stresses that you do not need to be an experienced writer to participate in these workshops.

In Screenwriting 101, Lalonde will guide participants through the screenwriting process, from creating a draft to making it ready for market. Participants will learn the difference between novel writing and writing a screenplay; the criteria used to ensure an idea is strong enough to carry a whole movie, series, mini-series, short film or feature film; how to tell a visual, emotional, and surprising story for screens; an overview on various screenwriting programs and their functions; and the use of dialogue for exposition.

Participants will also learn about funding opportunities for screenwriters, something Lalonde knows all too well as a familiar face at FilmPEI. She is the program coordinator of the popular PEI Screenwriters’ Bootcamp, an annual series of workshops for emerging screenwriters since 2008. She has served on the Island Media Arts Co-op, Women in Film and Television—Atlantic, and the PEI Council of the Arts committees. She is also the president of  the Charlottetown Film Society. She has written and directed several short films: Looking for Mr. RightHole in My HeartC J Superstar, and, most recently, The Appointment/Le Rendez-vous.

Screenwriting 101 takes place on November 23, from 9am until 4pm, at the Haviland Club in Charlottetown. The cost is $85 for Guild members and $95 for non-members. Registration is available on the PEIWG’s website (peiwritersguild.com).

Upcoming Events

 

$7 Friday Social and Karaoke this Friday—Bar Opens at 4, Dinner Follows the Draws at 6

It’s another delicious $7 Friday this week, courtesy of of Marie: Lebanese chicken wraps and more—and, in addition, a Karaoke/Sing A Long for members and guests. Sue S., Julie C., and Marie H. are organizing an impromptu karaoke for those who want to “belt out” a few tunes. Start practicing and bring your song choices. This is a fun event, no past experience needed.  See you Friday Sept 27th,  for some good food and good fun! Supper will be at 6 p.m.  Karaoke/Singing 7 p.m. And please remember to sign up for the dinner ahead of time (Marie asks that she know by noon Wednesday) so we know how much food to purchase and prepare, much appreciated.You can put your name on the sign-up sheet in the taproom, hit reply to this email, or call or write. See you Friday!

 

Coffee and Conversation Returns Thursday September 26, 10 –11:30 AM

Join us this Thursday, September 26th, for our first meeting of the fall season. Come and tell us what you have been doing this summer. And find out, for starters, why the existence of New York City depends on chocolate? And what does wheat have to do with the 24 hour day and 360 degrees? Bert C has arranged a schedule of guests for the fall, but is keeping the last Thursday of each month for conversation between members and their guests. On October 3, Will Hobbs and Bruce Craig will talk to us about the PEI Symphony, and October 10 Detective Constable Jason McKinnon will discuss investigative techniques.

 

The Haviland Club Pond Scotch Tasting, Friday October 25, 7 PM (Public Event)

Please join us for a wee dram—or rather, a series of wee drams—at the Haviland Club on Friday October 25th at 7 PM. Your host for the evening will be Mr. Gary Ready. Five single malts will be served, also smoked salmon on a bagel. Cost per person is $40.00, they’re available at the bar, and only 26 will be sold, so get yours soon!

 

The Haviland Club Book Club, Tuesday October 15, 7 PM

Here’s what the Book Club will be reading in coming months (by the way, Foe got a 6/10 rating from the group. As usual, some of the group found aspects others had missed—that’s why the conversation is so much fun.) For next month the club will read the humourous Curtains: Adventures of an Undertaker-in-Training, by Tom Jokinen to be followed by Testaments: A Novel by Margaret Atwood (sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale); The Other Side of the Sun, by Thien Tang; The Big Green Tent: A Novel,  by Ludmila Ulitskaya; Fifth Business,  by Robertson Davies; and Nostalgia,  by M G Vassanji. A busy season begins! Join the conversation!
