Ive been on a 4-month working visit to Nigeria and Im halfway through. I would like to spend a reasonable chunk of the remaining half of my time giving something remarkable to my Nigerian FB friends, fans and well-wishers before I return to the US. I created Filmmakers Dialect a few years ago, while I was a student at New York Film Academy, so as to enable me share freely with you, some of the knowledge I was then acquiring. I shared quite a lot on screenwriting, then. Now, I wanna do it again, and I’m excited I have the opportunity to do it in a B&M (bricks and mortar) environment, this time around. Depending on the indicated interest, I would like to host a-week-long intensive screenwriting workshops in a few Nigerian cities. Abuja, Asaba, Lagos and Port Harcourt are on the slate right now. Subject to demand, a new city could be added to the slate. Prior knowledge or experience in screenwriting is not required. If you can read and write, you can write that story in your head into a marketable screenplay. If you already can write a screenplay, youll learn one or two new tricks from me (Hollywood-trained and African Oscars winning filmmaker) that can make you a better screenwriter. I assure you that at the end of the workshop, you’ll be able to write your own stories and market them in Nollywood. If interested, please send me an email at johnchuka@hotmail or text me at 070.6157.7986 to indicate your interest in the workshop and also let me know your city of interest. In order to offset the cost of organizing it, a token fee of N15K (Fifteen Thousand Naira) will be required.
