Is Screenwriting Your Dream?

If so, and you are totally committed to learning to write for the big screen (or the little plasma), you might want to enroll into a screenwriter's program.

One program I recently took a look at is the Writers Boot Camp in Los Angeles and New York City and online. Writers Boot Camp was founded by president Jeffrey Gordon soon after he obtained his masters from the Peter Stark Motion Picture Producing Program at USC. He put together a six week course that guaranteed a complete script. This evolved into the present Basic Course and Think Tank programs - membership for screenwriters who want to fully develop their work. There is also a Career Development Program which includes industry speakers and actor readings of scripts-in-progress.

There are intern and even barter opportunities that may help you in your dream of becoming a screen writer. Right now the New York office is looking for a handyman in exchange for class time.
