Testimonials

 "Even though I had been part of script doctoring initiatives, after the Script Circle with François and Franz I finally understood what it means to have worked with a script consultant. Or perhaps the better term would be a script therapist, because their deep and amazingly thorough reading of each of our scripts and then their very thoughtful, gentle and eloquent challenging of our most cherished darlings, I think really transformed each of us. In fact, I think that never before was I able to really hear and take in so many criticisms about my script and then now be excited to go and fix them. I think that I could go as far as to say that I simply cannot really imagine that there is a better way to aid a screenwriter than what François and Franz do through their Script circle. So most of all, I really feel immensely grateful to the festival and to the two of them for this experience, because I have that much more chance of making my film happen. "

 "The professionalism and expertise of the script consultants at the workshop was absolutely amazing; they even inspired me to consider pursuing an education in script consulting. But the best aspect for me was the methodology of the workshop - the analysis and group discussions among the tutors and the participants were very useful both for further development of my script and my general approach to audiovisual storytelling. I only wish it could have lasted longer!"
