What To Expect
Christine Conradt will be presenting this special webinar just for home-schoolers. As a produced screenwriter with over 50 movies for Hallmark, Lifetime and others (“On the 12th Date of Christmas” and “The Charm Bracelet” aired on Hallmark Christmas last month) and Young Adult fiction author of three books published by HarperCollins, Christine will offer us valuable insights in this introductory session.
Christine will briefly touch on the traditional 3-act structure found in movies, however, primary focus will be on the Christmas movie since these movies are most recently familiar to most of us. Christine will explain the differences in the Lifetime 8-act and Hallmark 9-act structure.
