Documentary script-writing Workshop

Lisa Sfriso

Documentary filmmakers are often inspired by real life situations. How does one go from an idea for a documentary film to the actual script-writing? How does one script reality? From the inception of an idea to the writing of the working script, this workshop will familiarize students with the different stages which lead to the production of a documentary film and with the particularities of documentary film-writing. Since 1997, Lisa Sfriso has directed close to a dozen independent films, documentaries on social issues and short fictional films.
