Adapting for the Screen: a Guardian Masterclass

Master the art of taking a story from page to screen with novelist, screenwriter and head of subject in creative writing at Brunel University, Max Kinnings, along with special guest, award-winning producer/director, Phil Hawkins. This two day masterclass will cover all aspects of the adaptation process, analysis of source material, screenplay structure, characterisation and story design. What makes a good adaptation? Why do some screen adaptations fail while others succeed? Isn't every screenplay an adaptation of sorts?

10am-5pm, 21st & 22nd of September
The Guardian, 90 York Way, King's Cross, London, N1 9GU
Price: £349 Early Bird (limited); £399 standard (includes VAT, booking fees, lunch and refreshments)
