Class & Workshop
April 18, 2026 to April 25, 2026
1:00-4:00PM (April 18, Ideation), 4:00-6:00PM (April 25, Workshop)
2F Comuna bldg, 238 Pablo Ocampo Sr. Ext, Makati City, 1203, Metro Manila

This two-part session contains a lecture component (April 18, 1PM-4PM) and a workshop component (April 25, 4PM-6PM).

Tailored for mid-career writers or those with an existing concept, the lecture deepens structural work and sharpens execution. Participants will stress-test their premise, refine character arcs, and strengthen scene construction with a more advanced lens.

The workshop answers the critical question: What now? The focus is on rewriting strategies, sharpening emotional beats, clarifying market positioning, and identifying practical next steps for pitching or further development.

The Script Ideation Class for Early Writers may be joined at PHP 2500. The Ideation and Development Class may be attended at PHP 5000, which provides access to an exclusive workshop with Noreen Capili.
