Screenwriting Workshop with Ben Wiggins

Literal

Saturday, June 25 & Sunday, June 26
10:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

The writing workshop will discuss the writer’s process from beginning to “end” (as if it ever really ends!). We will talk about the brainstorming process of story breaking, keeping track of story in a visual way, working through early drafts, and the later, ultra-specific stages of “dialogue chess”. We will also work with the participants in the acting workshop to create live scenes.


Ben Wiggins is a Los Angeles-based producer and screenwriter who originally entered production in Houston, working on commercials and music videos prior to moving west in 2008. After a significant number of projects as a 1st and 2nd assistant director in Los Angeles, he began contracting to develop ideas into films, wrote three commissioned screenplays (including a novel adaptation), and funded his own production company in 2011. He co-penned and produced three episodes of “Take One with Justin Nichols”, sold feature comedy “Contempt of Short” in 2014, and co-wrote Devious Maids Episode #310 (“Whiplash”) in 2015 with his current writing partner, Christian Spicer. Ben has also led a number of seminars on writing, story, and development.
