Shakespeare

JESSIE KAHNWEILER - WRITER/director: THE SKINNY, HE'S THE ONE

"A few years ago, in an effort to help my work evolve from "therapy caught on film" Joey Soloway recommended Joan Scheckel's Filmmaking Labs and my life, work, and central nervous system would never be the same. Studying with Joan broke me down only to break me wide open. She's taught me that feels + craft = the truth. Whenever people ask how to break into the biz, I recommend Joan's Labs. It's not cheap, but I promise you it will get your stories told and sold. THIS is the work and it never ends, baby. See ya in class!"

What is it?

Take a deep dive into the brilliant aliveness of Shakespeare’s First Folio! Learn how the Master used Feeling, Sound, Rhythm, Meter, Breath, Punctuation, Repetition, Antithesis, Contrast, and Action to give instant revelation with heart-pounding bad-assness. A tonic for those needing pure passion and emotional truth!

Led by Joan Scheckel, Exec Producer Beginners, Consulting Producer Transparent, and the creator of The Technique™, The Shakespeare Lab is a crash course on profound structures that really sing.

Learn meaty tools for writing Characters with passion and feeling!

Unleash Dialogue that is vivid, tender, and searing!

Using the First Folio, we diagram scenes and monologues to reveal the secrets of the Bard, and discover the structural underpinnings that make his work eternally speakable, gettable, and true. Critical for creators looking to break form and MAKE CHANGE!
