Writing and Directing a Scene

Writing and Directing a Scene

Wed, Oct 8 @ 7PM, Wed, Oct 22 @ 6 PM

Location: Winnipeg Film Group
Registration Fee: 120 – 160
Instructor: Rebecca Gibson

Join Rebecca Gibson in this two-part workshop as she explores the best ways to write and direct a scene. The first class will examine scene writing and the participants will write a 2 to 3 page piece from a provided scenario using Rebecca’s techniques. The second class will consist of directing one of the selected scripts. Actors and crew will be provided and we will shoot one of the scenes on that day.

Rebecca Gibson is an award-winning actor, writer, producer and a director. Recent credits include the documentary Daphne Korol:The Drama Queen of Winnipeg (writer/director/producer). the web series WindCity (writer/ series lead), and the feature film H&G (co-writer/0producer), which has played in festivals all over North America and recently won a Silver Remi at the Houston WorldFest. Rebecca’s work as a writer includes several feature films and television series, many of which have development deals that are at the packaging phase (attaching lead cast). Her award-winning screenplay Jane Garbage will be produced as a feature film by Rebecca’s production company, Red Czarina Entertainment (with her partners Danishka Esterhazy and Ashley Hirt). Rebecca is currently working on Taken,  a series focused on the search for missing and murdered Aboriginal women. Rebecca has trained and mentored thousands – writers, directors, actors, and more.
