Actor James Franco (FLYBOYS, THIS IS THE END) is going to be accessible for those of you wishing to learn screenwriting from an accomplished actor. The course will be offered online (via Skillshare)  and will be co-taught by Vince Jolivette, who is the co-founder of Franco's production company Rabbit Bandini Productions.

The class will actually be about Short Film writing and will span 15 sessions of 90 minutes with an official title of "Introduction to Screenwriting for Short Films."  Students will write their own short screenplay with Franco and Jolivette selecting one of the writers for one-on-one feedback. The deadline to enter is July 24.
