Take a look at Gordy's workshop through the eyes of a beginning screenwriter. He explains the helpful process and why he recommends the group engaging workshop.
Hey, Whaddya Say?


"I have a way of filming things and staging them and designing sets. There were times when I thought I should change my approach, but in fact, this is what I like to do. It's sort of like my handwriting as a movie director. And somewhere along the way, I think I've made the decision: I'm going to write in my own handwriting."

-Wes Anderson
