We’re delighted to welcome back acclaimed and iconoclastic Hungarian writer/director Gyula Gazdag to mentor at Script to Screen’s Story Camp this summer. Gyula Gazdag is longstanding Artistic Director of the Sundance Filmmakers’ Lab, as well as an Emeritus Professor at UCLA. He has also served as an advisor at the Script Station of the Berlinale Talent and at the Binger labs.
Story Camp evolves from our 2014 and 2015 writing labs, which have seen talented local writers workshop their feature film scripts with exceptional international and local mentors.
This year each selected writer or writing team will have a rigorous five-day residential experience tailored specifically to meet the development needs of their feature film project. At the heart of the programme remains exceptional and experienced practitioners working with NZ’s exciting writers and filmmakers to foster voice and vision.
The process for each participant will be made up of some or all of the following development techniques: one-on-one script sessions, project-based group workshops, read-throughs, and workshopping with actors. The writers’ key collaborators will be invited in to parts of the process in instances where that will be of additional benefit to the process and project.
