A little more about LabScript

The initiative LabGuion (ScriptWorkshop) was born to improve the specialised training of scriptwriters of Colombia and Ibero-America. LabGuion allows qualifying projects of 24 film scriptwriters through master lectures and exchanges with other fellows during a week. A total of 90 projects have already gone through one of the editions held of this initiative that has led to more than 18 works to be scholarship or awards winners.   

Almost 100 Ibero-American film projects have gone through LabGuion to improve the technique and the elaboration of its script in the past four editions celebrated in Colombia

If you are one of the 24 scriptwriters whose work has been selected, you can benefit from the activities organised by LabGuion to improve your project. Now, if you decide to participate and you have been already chosen by the committee, you must guarantee your availability to be present at the 5th edition of this initiative, which will take place at Santa Fe de Antioquia (45 Km from Medellín), from 16 to October 2017.

Thereupon, you can consult opinions of scriptwriters who participated on this particular “workshop” to improve their technic during previous editions. If you are interested in being part of this initiative and you have any doubts, you can consult the organisers of the LabGion or consult more information on the web.
