Crafting Powerful and Original Character Arcs, with Anthony Mullins


Script to Screen welcomes BAFTA and AWGIE winning screenwriter Anthony Mullins to Aotearoa.

Join us as Anthony discusses screenwriting and how writers can explore and excel in telling more complex, intricate, authentic stories. Anthony challenges the conventions of story structure and character arcs, expanding your possibilities as a storyteller.

This is a fantastic opportunity to hear from one of Australia’s leading screenwriters, and author of the book Beyond the Hero’s Journey: Crafting Powerful and Original Character Arcs for the Screen.

Essential for anyone interested in writing scripts for film and TV series, this TALK will take place in both Wellington and Auckland in early May.
