Let's Make a Movie! Creative Writing: Storyboard & Script + Virtual Performance

Write It, Act It, Bring It to Life! A Screenwriting, Storytelling & Performance Workshop.

Does your teen or tween have a story in their head that’s waiting to come alive? Whether they dream of writing for television and film, crafting compelling stories, performing their own scripts, or even directing one day, this class will take them on an exciting journey—where they’ll not only create their own screenplay but also bring it to life on screen using immersive backgrounds and performance techniques.

This class isn’t just for aspiring screenwriters or actors—it’s also perfect for teens who love storytelling and creative writing, and who want to learn the tools to organize and focus their ideas. Whether they’re passionate about crafting original characters, exploring world-building, or simply sharpening their ability to tell a great story, they’ll gain valuable skills that apply across all forms of writing, so they can get from the beginning, through the middle and to the end without wandering aimlessly all over the place by creating an active and engaging plot.

Over 12 thought-provoking and lively sessions, learners will develop a strong foundation as a group in creative writing, storytelling, and screenwriting format while sharpening their acting skills. Interspersed throughout these brainstorming sessions will be fun, interactive improv games and guided writing exercises, to inspire ideas, craft compelling characters, and shape their stories into a structured, dynamic script. Then, we’ll step into the world they’ve created—acting out their scenes using immersive Zoom backgrounds and AI-generated settings for a truly cinematic experience! (I do the AI generation for them unless they want to do it. They just need to bring the ideas.)

By the end of this class, your learner will have:
✅ A completed 20-30 page screenplay in proper script format
✅ A strong understanding of storytelling, structure, and creative writing techniques
✅ Hands-on experience performing their script, bringing their ideas to life
✅ A final recorded performance they can look back on, share, and be proud of
