| Creating Subtext In Your Dialogue: The Meaning Behind The Words - |
"ABOUT THIS WEBINAR This webinar will focus on the most common dialogue flaw in scripts, even among professional writers "" �on-the-nose � dialogue. This is when dialogue tells the reader directly what ™s going on in a scene or what a character is thinking or feeling. When dialogue is obvious, it ™s often dull and ultimately unsatisfying.

In fact, most aspiring writers, who otherwise have solid story elements, can ™t break in because of flat, expository, and on-the-nose dialogue. If you ™re looking to improve subtext in your scenes, join award-winning UCLA instructor and author, Karl Iglesias as he guides you through proven techniques with matching examples from the masters of the craft to create subtext in your own dialogue.

"Horror has been one of the staples of film ever since the medium was invented. Perhaps that's because the genre taps into our most primal fears ""isolation, the unknown, and death ""in a visual, visceral way. But at the same time that we're frightened out of our wits, we are granted the safety and protection of the theater. It's the best of all possible worlds. For producers, making horror movies is a no-brainer: Intelligently written horror costs very little to make, crosses language barriers, and consistently makes money. Five of the 15 most profitable films of all time (by ROI) are horror: Paranormal Activity, The Blair Witch Project, Night of the Living Dead, Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Open Water.
