Other Worlds Austin SciFi Film Festival: FILM TALKS — THE TWO HEADED SCRIPT MONSTER

FILM TALKS: THE TWO HEADED SCRIPT MONSTER
A Screenwriting Workshop with Chad Archibald and Jayme LaForest

(Open to the public, but please RSVP as a courtesy)

Join ASFF for what promises to be a lively discussion about the relationship between directors and writers. Chad Archibald is a founder of Black Fawn Films, and director of this year’s UWA selection I’LL TAKE YOUR DEAD and last year’s Orbiter Series THE HERETICS, as well as BITE, EJECTA, THE DROWNSMEN and many more. Jayme co-wrote I’LL TAKE YOUR DEAD, THE HERETICS, and BITE with Chad.

How are ideas traded back and forth from draft to draft? How does a screenwriter collaborate with the person who can realize the idea? Does the relationship limit or expand creativity? How can a director turn off the production part of their brain to just focus on pre-production aspects?
