Come away with a deep understanding of how to make your own pages shine. After experiencing a day of learning and motivation from the professor, you'll hit the ground writing! Seminar includes book, lunch, and a complimentary follow-up read of your entire script.

“I came to L.A. with no money and no contacts in the movie business. Lost and trying to navigate my way through a sea of barriers, I found Richard Walter. His seminar inspired me to trust my instincts, believe in my ideas, and to never, ever give up. This is no paint-by-numbers seminar. Without the cynicism that is so pervasive in our business, Richard breaks down the self-imposed walls that keep us from discovering our own imaginations. In short, Richard Walter teaches us how to make movies.”
