Need motivation to
get a script written… in 30 days? If you think Twitter #writingsprints are
miraculous, wait until you try Script Frenzy!
This Sunday (March 18th, 2012), USA & EURO chats have guests Sandra Salas and Grant Faulkner of Script Frenzy. Come learn all the
tricks and benefits of surviving the 100-page-script-in-30-days challenge!
Sandra Salas,
Program Director
Sandra Salas @SandraSalas received her MFA in Screenwriting at the American Film
Institute where she earned honors and awards for her writing talent. A native
Angeleno, she grew up on a staple diet of films, spending summers at dollar
movie theaters, and Saturday afternoons watching classic films aired on a local
TV station. She has written shorts, promos, and features; co-wrote, produced,
and directed a TV pilot; and is currently developing a feature documentary. Her
film career has taken her to Bangkok, Malaysia, and Singapore; where she lived
and taught screenwriting. During her off hours, she can be found skateboarding
through the streets of Berkeley in search of undiscovered frozen yogurt shops,
or hiking the east bay trails with her two wonderful dogs.
Grant Faulkner,
Executive Director
As a boy, Grant @grantfaulkner spent his allowance on all sorts of pens and paper, so
there was never much question that he would become a writer. He received
his B.A. from Grinnell College in English and his M.A. in Creative Writing from
San Francisco State University. He has published in such journals as The
Southwest Review, Poets & Writers, The Rumpus, Gargoyle,
and The Berkeley Fiction Review, among others. He’s the founder and
editor of the lit journal 100 Word Story and writes essays and book
reviews for a number of publications and blogs. He believes quite simply that
everyone is a writer—that we create our world through the stories we tell—so he
now enthusiastically prods nearly everyone he meets to write a novel or a
script and feel how life can be transformed through a daring creative act..
