ABOUT
Gordy Hoffman, the Sundance award-winning writer/director (LOVE LIZA, A COAT OF SNOW)
and founder of the BlueCat Screenplay Competition, returns to Kansas City to lead a
screenwriting workshop on November 18th, from 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Winner of the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at the Sundance Film Festival for LOVE LIZA,
Gordy Hoffman has taught screenwriting at the USC School of Cinematic Arts in Los Angeles,
as well as led workshops all over North America, Poland and the UK. He has served as a
panelist for the IFP Script to Screen Conference in NYC, Women in Film’s Script DC
Conference in Washington, DC, and the George Eastman House Film Festival, as well as a
judge for the McKnight Screenwriting Fellowships in Minnesota. Gordy Hoffman founded the
BlueCat Screenplay Competition in 1998 and remains its judge. He’s currently writing a movie
about a comic book trade.
THE FULL SCRIPT WORKSHOP (Limit 7 Writers)
Participants read seven screenplays in advance of the workshop. During the workshop, Gordy
provides direct and in-depth feedback on each screenplay, with everyone encouraged to
contribute his or her own thoughts and concerns.
Each writer will leave with great sense of what they can do specifically to improve their
screenplay, as well a better awareness of where they might properly develop as a professional
screenwriter as a whole. Not only do you learn from the focus placed on your screenplay by the
workshop, but also by the examination of the six other scripts of the day.
Screenplays can be first drafts or rewrites, incomplete or partial, with first time writers and
veterans all welcome. Scripts are due 10-14 days prior to the date of the workshop.
Note: Screenplays submitted to the workshop are not eligible to be entered into the BlueCat
Screenplay Competition.
REGULAR REGISTRATION OPTION
Do you want to participate, but do not have a script to submit at this time? Regular registration
for the workshop allows you to attend without submitting written material, read the scripts in
advance and still participate in the discussion.
