WHY AM I DOING THIS?
DOMINIC MORGAN | WGA SCREENWRITER
I have written 45 screenplays. 35 have been optioned, commissioned, or paid for by producers and studios -- including Ridley Scott's Scott Free, Universal, Working Title, the BBC, ITV Studios, and Bold Films. I've been represented by 8 agents and 4 managers in London and Hollywood.
I’ve read over a thousand scripts by emerging writers. So why am I offering parts of my course for free?
I want to give you three of the most valuable techniques that I’ve learned over my career. Yes, I’m hoping that a percentage of you will see the power of The Scriptfella Program and decide to purchase the entire course. Not ready to purchase? That’s fine. The free lessons will be available to you any time you log into the course. You’ll also join our exclusive mailing list with industry articles, professional tips and tricks, and more free videos. No spam. We never share your info. Just time-saving techniques and knowledge I wish I’d had when I started writing.
Screenwriters who get signed & hired all have one thing in common -- they are a great read. They use language to hook industry readers and keep them reading. That's the advanced writing skill nobody teaches. And it's the reason I created The Scriptfella Program -- to help you maximise your chances of breaking through and becoming a working professional screenwriter. Unlock the free taster now.
