Welcoming Jenna-Louise Hawkins!

–

Ever wondered what actually makes a reader keep turning the page?

In this focused workshop, award-winning screenwriter and script consultant Jenna will unpack the first 10 pages — why they matter, what they must do, and how to craft them to industry standard.

Whether you’re working on a feature, short, or TV pilot, these first 10 pages are your calling card. Jenna will provide the insight, structure and tools to help you rewrite them with purpose — and polish your opening into a powerful hook.

Attendees will leave with a checklist to assess and refine the opening of any script.

Workshop Focus:

First Impressions Matter – How your tone, voice and story world are judged
Hooking the Reader – Raising the right questions and igniting curiosity
Laying the Groundwork – Setting up character, tone and stakes with efficiency
Building Your 10 Page Checklist – A survival guide of actionable criteria to pressure-test your script

Perfect for screenwriters, filmmakers, and storytellers working on TV, film, or short scripts who want their openings to grab attention — and hold it.
