Screenwriting Coach
DONALD H HEWITT
If you're ready to make the jump, not just write but be a screenwriter, I am here for you. I will guide you step-by-step from logline, to outline, to a completed draft, giving you clear, constructive feedback every step of the way.
ABOUT ME
I am a working screenwriter and WGA member with 20 years of industry experience.
I teach advanced screenwriting and core screenwriting classes at
USC School of Cinematic Arts and UCLA.
Currently, I am writing the upcoming Sci-Fi feature Gods of Mars. Recently, I wrote
a mini-series based on a classic novel set to star and produced by Sir Ben Kingsley. I have written extensively in the feature world including credits on Hayao Miyazaki's Oscar-winning and Oscar-nominated films. I have also had the privilege of working with some of the top producers in the industry, such as: John Lasseter, Peter Chernin, Kathleen Kennedy, Frank Marshall, David Heyman, Eric Fellner, Tim Bevan, Charles Roven and Alex Gartner.
My passionate screenwriting guidance has led to numerous students' success. Over the last 3 years at least one of my students has finished in the top 3 in the UCLAex screenwriting competition, including last year's winner Johan Ingler, who's script Frankie & Chair is now in production.
My screenwriting class has been rated the "Best in LA" by LA Weekly.
