“Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail better.” – Samuel Beckett

Austin Film Festival lives and breathes to help you fail better. Which actually can mean winning. To help you fail better we are continuing our Playwriting Track!

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
AFF’s Playwriting Track invites all the ‘narratively-inclined’ to join us at what has become the ultimate writers oasis.  Whether you are hoping to cultivate craft essentials in your dramatic writing or searching for creative new ways to move forward in your career, come meet others who share your passion and harness the inspiration offered at AFF for playwrights and screenwriters alike.

PLAYWRITING PROGRAMMING: At Austin Film Festival, our passion has always been to further the art and craft of storytelling by championing writers. The panelist roster in the Playwriting Track features writers who have worked in multiple mediums, discussions will explore the development of dialogue, character, action, temporal elements, and, more specifically, how these techniques can serve to inform writing for film, television, theatre and new media.
