Call or put your name on the pre-registration list to save your place.

THIS CLASS IS NOT ADVERTISED. ENROLLMENT IS LIMITED AND ALL PARTICIPANTS WILL HAVE THEIR PAGES ANALYZED.

Just like the Master's Class at UCLA, participants sit at a conference table and Professor Walter comments on your actual script pages.

Professor Walter replicates the same, safe environment that his Master Class is famous for, where writers such as David Koepp, Gregory Widen, Mike Colleary, Audrey Wells, Scott Rosenberg, Neil Jimenez and many others found inspiration and success.

Join Professor Walter, and get your own script pages reviewed. It's amazing what you learn. Participants literally run back to their word processors to make changes on their scripts and novels... changes that make your script shine!

“Richard Walter is a tactful guide within the student's creative dream. He brings the practicality of an electrician and the passion of a visionary to the teaching of screenwriting.”
Stewart Stern
Award-winning screenwriter
"REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE", "SYBIL", "RACHEL RACHEL"

The class includes, character, action, description and dialogue exercises, as well as TABLE READINGS, precise, in-depth examination and analysis of participants pages, new considerations of format, and enhanced story craft explorations.

“I recommend RICHARD WALTER'S seminar as a great tool for anyone interested in becoming a professional screenwriter.”
