Testimonials

Keren helped me realise that there was more than just ideas in me, she gave me the tools, the encouragement, and the place to practice. She taught me how to flesh ideas out into full fledged stories that had feet. As a beginner-writer and only having written creatively before, it felt empowering to be able to translate that to fit for the screen. It also was really nice to go through this process with others who were both learning and experienced. Leave your pride at the door, buckle up, and get ready to learn. It’s worth it!

Keren Green is a brilliant teacher, she has deep care for stories and people which really shows in her own work and examples. Never in my life did I think I would ever be able to write a TV show from idea, to pilot, to pitch deck on my own. And somehow in the 12-weeks I was with her, I managed to do that. Through this course, she not only helped me learn important lessons that are applicable for my writing, but in acting and all my other practices in life too. Her professionalism, her experience in multiple-practices and in both NZ and the US industry, and her care makes for the best teacher to dig around in the trenches of writing with. As I’ve said before, she is brilliant and I would 100 percent come back and do this with her again. Maybe I’ll take a season off to digest and clean up and apply the one I made in the last class, it is a lot of work but it is all the well worth it.

Highly recommended.

I have completed Keren’s Skills Mastery course as well as her TV Series Writing course. As a working Hollywood writer Keren is well equipped to arm you with the structure and tools to not only write fabulously crafted, and correctly formatted scripts, but to also create stand-out pitch decks. She is an overflowing fount of knowledge, and her classes are wonderfully collaborative. I highly recommend Keren’s courses if you are looking to stand-out as a screenwriter.

Karen Codd (K.C)

I was new to screenwriting and came from a novel-writer’s perspective.  Keren’s course and guidance offered such incredible insights and knowledge into the world of screenwriting. The course was achievable yet challenging enough to keep me wanting to strive harder.  I look forward to more courses and the opportunity to hone these skills further.  I highly recommend Keren’s courses to anyone that wants screenwriting experiences.

I really looked forward to Keren’s  Skills  Mastery Course every week. She gives you the tools and assistance to outline and structure your work to the point where finishing the feature after the course seems relatively straightforward with no nightmares of muddling through Act 2 and 3.
Initially, speed writing was intimidating but very quickly I saw how beneficial it is, how it rapidly it becomes easier and how fun it can be.  She pushed us to elevate our work and gave us so many new ways to achieve this. Now my challenge is to keep all her techniques in my mind and coordinate them on the page. Keren is such an inspiring  teacher and writer. I would highly recommend her courses and can’t wait to do another with her.

The Skills Mastery class with Keren was everything I could possibly need. The classes were informative, well thought out and with plenty of notes to take away and refer back on. The class helped me gain confidence in finishing my Feature Film and knowing exactly how to structure it correctly. Keren’s feedback is always insightful and engaging in a way that truly encourages growth. I would 10/10 recommend Keren’s classes to anyone who asks. Well worth the investment.

“This intensive 8 week workshop was both challenging and rewarding for us as writers. We gained an understanding of many structural tools, forming a framework for realising our creative ideas into a polished script.

It is worth making space in your schedule to devote time to the exercises and homework, this is a course where you truly get out what you put in. 

Giving and receiving feedback during classes helped us to apply the tools in real time, and we rapidly gained familiarity with rules around the language of screenplays.

Keren taught us that screenplays are an artform in their own right, and over the course of this workshop we felt empowered to communicate our ideas on the page without fluff or unnecessary prose.

We found that Keren’s familiarity with the writing industry in LA brought us rapidly up to date and she drilled home several amazing ways to bring characters to life, generate naturalistic structures to our stories and polish our scripts to a fine level.

 Keren also dropped practical insights into the world of professional screenwriting and film / TV production that has been invaluable in bringing our own scripts “up to code”. Her own knowledge of film and TV media also meant that she always had a common point of reference for us and could give us accessible examples to illustrate her lessons.

She pushed us beyond our comfort zone through intense writing exercises, awakened in us new perspectives on our writing and sharpened our skills beyond a level we had thought was possible.”

“I am still amazed at how much learning Keren could fit into this class, but she guides you through it effortlessly with her wealth of experience and industry knowledge.  Along with providing you the tools for telling stories, with the writing workshop aspect of the class, I felt the improvement in my writing over 8 weeks.  I now feel so much more confident to keep writing and tell my stories.”

Robyn Butler

“I did a beginner’s workshop with Keren in November 2021 and evetually progressed to the Skills Mastery course in February 2022. Through both these courses, Keren has helped me discover a hidden passion that I never thought existed until I started writing my first script which is now three scripts later. Now working on my fourth script, Keren has been an inspiration and excellent tutor who has guided me with the right tools to use when writing scripts in terms of characters, action lines and dialogue. She also gives very good feedback which helps to keep me on the right track such as showing the audience my story rather then telling it. I have learned so much thanks to Keren and would highly recommend her classes to anybody that is looking for a course in writing screenplays.”
