Location Online

Join multi-award-winning screenwriter Andrea Gibb as she shares some of her ideas on what is essential to storytelling for television. Whether you’re adapting source material or generating an original screenplay, there are several vital elements to developing a script for the small screen. You’ll learn about inventing a compelling world for your story, creating believable characters, the art of writing strong dialogue and how to explore structure.

This Masterclass is suitable for anyone who has some experience of writing for the screen and is looking for a fresh injection of inspiration and new ways to approach their work.


The Masterclass will be delivered via Zoom webinar, so you can take the session at your own pace, without the pressure of having your video or camera on. Sessions are also recorded so if you are unable to attend live, you will have access to the recording for a month afterwards.

Online: £40

"These zoom opportunities are really helping to open my world and keep me inspired to write."

"Arvon at Home creates a model to participate in inspirational tutoring for writers, at a distance. The feeling of attending to my writing life in an excellent fashion, and still having a half-day for my work and caring responsibilities at home, felt like a good balance."
— Masterclass participant
"It was an absolutely brilliant session and very very useful. And it made me realise how much I’ve missed this kind of workshop because of having children and family that I can’t leave. Now we’re all in the same boat the online stuff is truly transformative."
