Writing
Workshop
May 9th, 2026

An immersive full-day writing workshop led by professional writers from the animation industry. In this hands-on masterclass, you'll learn how animated stories are built, from developing strong concepts and memorable characters to structuring scenes and writing dialogue that works on screen.
This workshop is designed for both beginners and experienced writers.
Meet the writers:
