If you'd like to get a better understanding of the pacing and cinematic elements that make up a Thriller, if you've got a suspense story you would like to develop into a script, or you're simply a fan of the genre and would like to learn how to write and pitch a suspense story, join Ken for a three week course that will show you how to own your fear... and sell it to the highest bidder! Note: This is the first in a series of courses where students will have the opportunity to develop and "workshop" a feature-length thriller script under Ken's guidance.
