Collaborate with others to develop scripts that will eventually be produced by Dreamweaver Collective filmmakers. Original screenplays will be developed through the process of editing and revision. In this workshop participants will learn and improve on proper formatting, story structure, and writing skills. Sign up for screenwriters workshops.
This workshop occurs every Saturday from 10am-12pm in the PLAY Studio at JUMP!
NEW! We now offer our screenwriters workshops virtually on Microsoft Teams! If you want to join our screenwriters meeting but can't make it in person to JUMP, you can still participate! We can't wait to see you in person or online.
Filmmakers Workshops (*currently paused)
The Filmmaker Workshop explores all the aspects of film production—actors, grips, camera operators, production managers, directors, etc. Each participant is encouraged to explore the elements that interests them the most whether that is how to scout locations, frame a shot, different shot techniques and so much more.

This workshop series is FREE and open to the community and happens every Saturday in the PLAY Studio on the 4th level at JUMP!
