Screenwriting Season Is Here!
Summer in NYC is in full swing and so are the new and exciting Screenwriting "en español" workshops that Elio Ruiz first developed at Cine Drama - Mexico. How often do we realize how much better a script could sound in our native tongue, if only we knew how to structure and plot in Spanish; too often, many must agree.
Professor Ruiz developed English for Screenwriters in Mexico City, where he taught for 15 years. Now in Manhattan, the Bronx, in Queens and Brooklyn and all over the New Jersey area he runs into people writing their Latin experience, but not "en español". That's too bad!, he used to lament. But a fusion with a strong circle of translators and arts educators has now become a renewed workshops and clinics school where his new students want to write scripts in Spanish and Portuguese.
Professor Ruiz delivers more than just a weekend clinic. He offers an arsenal of complex, yet unassuming, writing formulas and spreads his in-depth experience of the Latinamerican culture, plus his own brand of Afro-Caribbean anthropology.
This summer to fall 2008 season (over 15 projects) includes a tri-filmic montage dealing with Brazilian culture, Halloween and the Dia de los Muertos/Todos los Santos celebrations in the U.S. and in Mexico and Latin America. Students from the Screenwriting programs will join forces with Cine Minuto aspiring producers/directors, and the Cine Drama crew under Professor Ruiz will provide hands-on and step-by-step instruction and creative options.
Register for your weekend workshop at Cine Drama soon! Space is limited.
