Utah Queer Film Festival is proud to present the world premiere live performance of four new musical works that ask: “Where do queer people find Home?” written as a response to last year’s 25th anniversary of the October 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard in Laramie, Wyoming.
In this workshop participants will explore ways to make films centered around their own personal queer stories. We will explore the power of personal filmmaking for both the filmmaker and the viewer, how to develop your own story into an outline or script, and the technical aspects of filming yourself.
This workshop is designed for writers at all levels who are passionate about telling queer stories through a narrative lens. Participants will learn the essentials of screenwriting, guiding them in turning an initial story idea into a professionally-developed script.
