Visual Writing || The Online Master Class

This was my favorite class. "Space, light, texture" is the mantra that has stuck with me and inspired me ever since. The practice we received writing scene-setting descriptions from photographs was extremely effective because it trained us to pay attention to the path of the eye wandering through a scene, and to record a sequence of visual details in the natural order.

Anytime I read a script and wonder where in the fuck I'm supposed to be, I can't concentrate on the story. This is supposed to be visual! Max taught me how to first orient my reader so that they can sit back and take the ride of the story. There's an art to this, just like there is in the entirety of the script - this part just comes first.

This was the course I needed. Writing for speeches and for radio (no pictures) and writing novels (fill pages) had not prepared me to create clear, compelling images in readers' heads. And do in concisely. I got exactly what I was looking for with this course thanks to powerful lectures, hands-on assignments, and great discussions.

This class brought my screenwriting to a whole new level, and I’ve never looked back. If you want to immerse the reader visually so that they can ‘see’ the movie as they read, and you do - Max Adams teaches how to do this succinctly yet powerfully. A must take class for any screenwriter!

What can I say? It's easy for us screenwriters to visualise scenery and action within our brain, but when the time comes to write them on paper - well, you surely know the feeling. After this course, visual descriptions in your screenplays won't be the same. By implementing Max's rules, you will deliver succinct yet enticing visual descriptions in your stories; make the story 's images pop out!
