Creative Screenwriting Lessons online via Zoom
Are you looking for a creative screenwriting class that feels refreshing and genuinely useful? Our screenwriting lessons introduce you to the craft of fiction from the storyteller’s point of view. These courses provide methods and techniques used by professional writers—whether you want to write a short story, novel, or screenplay.
You will learn to “read” a film not merely as a viewer, but as someone who understands how compelling characters, solid structure, and vivid visual storytelling are created and developed.
Our first course was successfully held for two years at SourLiBooM Art Space in Thessaloniki, Greece, and at the Writers’ Union of Northern Greece. It has since been offered online since 2020. The second course was introduced in the syllabus in 2023.
To get a sample of the lessons, click here for the FREE SCRIPT GUIDE which includes material from the second lesson.
All lessons are taught by Alex Barj (also known as Anastasia Bartzoulianou), a screenwriter whose award-winning short film The Noir Project has received eight awards at five Greek film festivals, including best screenplay at the Athens International Digital Film Festival.
