Safety Harbor's Screenwriters Of Tomorrow Take Show On Road

Ever feel like your life was made for the big screen? Well, the Screen Writers of Tomorrow in Safety Harbor can show you how to get it there.

Founded by Eric McBaen in August 2009, the Screenwriters of Tomorrow is a group dedicated to educating screenwriters. McBaen, Sloane Golden and Terri Emerson make-up the talent and brains behind Screenwriters of Tomorrow, believing that everyone has a story to tell. The group teaches people how to tell their story and get it on paper in Hollywood-ready format.

McBaen currently has a script being considered for option and Golden has three optioned scripts in his portfolio, meaning a company has picked up the screenplay to be reviewed and researched for possible production.

The Sunscreen Film Festival has tapped this talented group to create an educational program for their continuing adult education and film series. Using the two-day screenwriting intensive as part of their model, Screenwriters of Tomorrow has decided to take their seminar on a tour.

"We'll be bringing everything you need to know about screenwriting in order to take your story from fade in to fade out in a two-day screenwriting intensive," says McBaen.

They will begin their tour in Clearwater, Palm Beach and Jacksonville in the fall of 2010. They then plan on going to Orlando, Miami and Tallahassee beginning in January 2011. They have plans to continue the tour through Atlanta and the along the East coast.

The Fade In to Fade Out Tour will be in Clearwater on Sept. 11 and 12, in the Mirage Room at the Tucson South Western Grill. Cost is $150/person and seating is limited.

For more information, contact Eric McBaen at [email protected]. The Screenwriters of Tomorrow meet monthly on the fourth Saturday of the month at Safety Harbor Library from noon to 3 pm.

You can also find McBaen, Golden and Emerson this month at the University Film & Video Association's Summer Film Fair at the University of South Florida on Saturday, June 12, from 9am-6pm at The Marshall Center Ballroom. For more information, click here.
