Fantastic Movie Writing Course! Covered everything I wanted and more! I really love how it breaks down story structure and uses examples from “Wonder Woman” and “The Wedding Singer.” 2 of my favorite movies. The other examples are great too even if I haven't seen those movies. Awesome class! - Amy T
