More Of What Delegates Say About What We Do...
‘A really judicious balance of elements, and a masterly distillation of some very complicated but indispensable ideas.’
Andrew Campbell // Screenwriter
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘It was clearly structured, with brilliant advice and watching the clips was very helpful. It’s one of the best courses I’ve been on. The workshop part helped me look at my script in a new light – looking at those intense, emotion-laden, visually memorable moments which sum up relationship or theme. Brilliant!’
Amy Sparkes // Writer
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘My writing partner and I booked Bob’s one-on-one consultation session with a plethora of warring, anxious questions in our heads, and emerged from it with focused and determined ones instead. Bob identifies the core priorities of your story in finger-snap time, and asks all the right questions to help you get to the root of both its problems and potential. A lean, mean (but actually kind) hour of charged wisdom – highly recommended’
Teodor Reljić // Screenwriter
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘Bob is the best scriptwriting teacher I’ve ever had. I love everything about this course.’
Natasha Sutton Williams, Writer, Actor

Feedback for Beyond The Conventions: Writing The Non Traditional Protagonist
‘I’m just buzzing – that was just fantastic!!!!! I have – count them! – three ideas for stories that came to me during the course!!!!!!!! (In context I usually have just one a year!) I learnt so much – and those clips were fantastic. Thanks so much to you and Chris. Am spending today scribbling down those stories. Seriously if I stop coming to the courses call an ambulance because it means I physically couldn’t get to the computer! Honestly these courses just inspire and inform and teach in a way that you can’t bottle. Thanks so much again!’
Varsha Shah // Screenwriter
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Feedback for The Ten Screenwriting Commandments Of Quentin Tarantino
‘Bob is a master at dissecting great writers, the reward and punishment commandment was very inciteful. Step aside Aaron Sorkin there’s a new motherf*er in town. Just a brilliant session I didn’t think I needed, but I’m glad I did it. Quentin Tarantino’s ten Commandments are one of the best checklist you’ll ever need. Thanks Bob for setting them out you a bad motherf*er!’
Alison Hogge // Filmmaker
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Feedback from Mastering Misdirection
‘I thought the practical way in which the information was delivered, which made it easy to understand and assimilate was brilliant. Also, the examples used and the tools provided, which I found very inspiring. I loved the writing exercises and how they helped me rethink some scenes in my current project.’
Denisa Popa // Writer, Producer

Logline clinic with Bob Schultz
We all know that the industry distils our 120 pages of blood, sweat and a considerable amount of tears, all down to a log line. A sentence, or maybe two, that conveys plot, characters, tone, universe, story and so much more. Join other writers just like you for a day long hands-on workshop that will turbo charge your loglines. Additionally, there is a 30 minute seminar (to watch online) to prep for the workshop. Have Bob fix your logline and learn HOW he does it so you can do it too.
