Film School Confidential: FUNNY HOW?

11. October 2012 by Palle Schmidt

If you thought I was done talking about last week at Film School, you are mistaken! Friday was a look on the bright side of things, talking comedy with Lars Detlefsen, head of the screenwriting course at the National Film School of Denmark. We were treated with clips from Hot Rod, Play it Again Sam […]

Film School Confidential: YOU TALKING TO ME?

9. October 2012 by Palle Schmidt

Consulting my notes from last week’s program, I find a lot I missed in the last few posts. As mentioned earlier/ further down this page, last week at film school we were taught by screenwriter Stefan Jaworski. A lot of constructive lessons in loglines, structure, scenes and dialogue. Here is some of what he wrote on the […]

Film School Confidential: LOGLINES AND DIALOGUE

4. October 2012 by Palle Schmidt

Another day with Stefan Jaworski, looking at log lines for our stories, trying to distill it down to one simple idea. What the logline should contain, is the main protagonist, his or her main project, and the resistance in the story. It’s also a great idea to have dramatic irony in the logline (in Liar, […]

Film School Confidential: BACK TO THE EIGHTIES

2. October 2012 by Palle Schmidt

Back at Film School this week, kicking off with big drama both on screen and off. Drama teacher Mogens Rukow is an elderly gentleman and has struggled with health problems during most of my year at the school. During his weekly talk about movie structure (and the almost just as weekly showing of scenes from Godfather I, II or […]

Film School Confidential: PAIN AND SUFFERING WITH LARS DETLEFSEN

6. September 2012 by Palle Schmidt

The last three days of this week at Film School we read our treatments aloud and got critique from head of the screenwriting education, Lars Detlefsen. When we were up in that room before the summer, I felt like I took a beating. But today, a fellow student took a beating that reminded me of Bane kicking Batman’s butt […]

Film School Confidential: WRITING EXERCISES WITH NIKOLAJ SCHERFIG

5. September 2012 by Palle Schmidt

Tuesday was a creative rush, getting back in shape after the holidays with a day of writing exercises.We’ve been taught by Nikolaj Sherfig before, so introductions were not necessary – we just jumped right in and started writing. He had three exercises for us (actually more, but feedback took longer than expected, so…). Write an […]
