More About This Virtual Event

Explore the basics of writing for film in a fun and engaging way!

Take a chance by improving one's balance in life by taking on a new interest or hobby. We all love movies and enjoy talking about them at work — so why not learn how they're written?

Participants will have a more in-depth understanding of how stories for the film medium are crafted as well as a foundation to build upon should they choose to explore screenwriting creatively.

Experience Details:

Participants receive a lightning fast crash course, then brainstorm and draft a short storyline and, in doing so, discover the full range of their own creativity!

Re-think team building activities! Screenwriting is something a lot of people wonder about but never take the plunge and the time to try to learn how it's done. Whether it’s for for team and interest building, or as a relaxing reward in the form of a lunch-and-learn — The Screenwriting Challenge! is sure to spark interest and trigger loads of laughter.

HOSTED BY

Vince Brophy, BA, MFA

Vince is a technical and creative writer, training developer, and communications and writing instructor based in Calgary, Alberta. He has taught communications and writing at Red Deer College and the University of Calgary and also develops and delivers entertaining training for corporate and government audiences. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Humanities, and a Master of Fine Arts in Screenwriting and has presented his creative and academic work at two conferences. Vince has also pitched several stories at the Banff World Media Festival and has workshopped two stories with film and animation studios in Toronto.

“I'm a facilitator and not a dictator -- first and foremost. I thrive with a discussion-based format, and I enjoy the conversation and sharing of stories and humour.”

Vince has been teaching and creating and delivering team experiences since 2017, and has been writing and presenting since the early 2000s. Outside of work, Vince enjoys carpentry, automotives, music, and writing creatively for personal growth, and occasionally gets involved with the arts in the city—and beyond.
