Facilitator: Kathryn Burnett Kathryn is an award-winning screenwriter and playwright who has worked in the NZ television/film industry for over 20 years. She runs the Writing Room and has coached numerous writers. She has significant television and film credits and has developed numerous television series for NZ’s major production companies. Her most recently produced TV projects include – “Fresh Eggs,” “The Sounds” and “The Cul de Sac.” She is also on the development team for an HBO sci-fi series and has a comedy series in development with Warner Brothers. What people are saying:“The June workshop was a thoroughly enjoyable two days with Kathryn. Learnt new things and was reminded of others – than you!” Emma Newborn – Actor“Kathryn has a skill too many story consultants and teachers lack – the ability to listen attentively. This allows her to tune in to what the writer is doing and then offer finely tuned and individualized advice rather than generic formulas. In return she expects the writer to do some work on their ideas, not just sit back and wait to be told something. This is an approach that produces results.” Daniel Fleming – Professor of Screen &amp; Media Studies, University of Waikato“A great brainstorming session to sort out the ideas in your head. Thanks for starting my engine!” Jane Asbury“I found Kathryn’s teaching rich and engaging. For a novice like myself it was very encouraging and I gained a wealth of insights and sense.” Frances Young – Psychologist and Educator“Kept me writing notes and solving problems in my writing projects all day. Fascinating and very helpful!” Amy Paulussen – Writer“Loved Kathryn’s relaxed and yet professional teaching style – great sense of humour and ability to communicated ideas clearly and concisely.” Katherine Smith – Data Entry Operator&quot;Kathryn Burnett is the bombdiggity. She brings amazing experience, intelligence, and passion to her teaching. She has a comprehensive understanding of movies, cinema history, and storytelling technique, and is effective and engaging when sharing that knowledge with her students. Kathryn is to storytelling tutors as Carlos the Jackal is to international assassins. I can&#x27;t recommend her highly enough.&quot; Steve Barr - screenwriter, producer, and development executive“Kathryn&#x27;s screenwriting workshop was brilliant. I loved learning from her and would sit at the front of the class, furiously jotting down notes like a nerd. Kathryn has a natural ability to connect with an audience. She teaches with patience and humour and she provides cake for morning tea! I&#x27;d recommend the workshop for anyone wanting to learn more about screenwriting.” Jaquie Brown – Presenter, Actor, Screenwriter &quot;Loved it! Kathryn gets straight to the point and gives clear, practical advice about screenwriting. She demystifies the process.&quot; Rebecca Barry Hill - Journalist/Screenwriter
