with Spade Robinson
 
In this part lecture/part workshopping course, writers will develop the characters from their feature screenplays or tv pilot ideas. These characters will be workshopped for dimension, back story and character languages. Over the course of two hours, Spade will workshop individual characters and teach exercises for character development to use for every story you write!
 
Optional: Want an extra hour of one-on-one attention? Spade will speak with you one-on-one for an extra hour of consultation time to discuss your project. She will read approx 30 pages of scripted material OR an outline/pitch document provided in advance of the meeting. Please choose this option in the drop-down menu when purchasing this workshop. This extra time will be scheduled directly with the instructor.

About the instructor...
Spade Robinson (www.atlantafilmproject.com) began curating scripts, films and documentary works in progress projects during her time at Sundance Institute, where she worked with the Feature Film Program, Documentary Film Program and Sundance Film Festival. During that time, she worked with hundreds of filmmakers to develop the most compelling versions of their stories. Underneath Rahdi Taylor of the DFP, she created a series of workshops to cultivate emerging filmmakers, building a pipeline into the funding opportunities there. In 2015, Spade founded Atlanta Film Project to support storytellers more democratically, around the world. Since then, she's worked with countless storytellers and companies, including HBO, FOX, Disney, Women In Film, Film Independent and Sundance, to this end.
