This masterclass was well organized and presented. Everything was relevant to what I need to know about writing a Christmas movie, and selling it. Isabel has a very engaging way about her that made the workshop entertaining and enjoyable. A lot of information was given but with her touches of humor and specific examples of her experiences, the time flew by. I definitely recommend this masterclass.

Isabel Drean's masterclass helped me understand the structure of holiday stories that producers are actually looking for. It confirmed the value of lo-tech yellow writing pads and file cards. It taught me a quick writing technique that is transferable from one genre to another. Most of all, the class showed me that writing "within the box" is probably the most "out of the box" approach I could take to improve my plot points and visual storytelling. Isabel is a generous teacher-mentor with a great sense of humor and a great presentation style. With her many tips about strategic time management for writers, I'd recommend her classes to anyone who's serious about pushing their scriptwriting skills to a whole new level.
