Dani Menkin, writer and director of “39 Pounds of Love,” and Gil Kofman, screenwriter for “The Memory Thief” will also join the three-day intensive workshop.
The Scriptwriting Workshop will take place Oct. 12-14, and is open to students and adult writers, both amateur and professional. Each participant needs to come with the completed draft of an original, short script that will be the source material used during the three-day workshop.
