The Orange County Screenwriters Association. We  collaborate, network and share.  We will discuss screenwriting, writing for television, and filmmaking... a place to come together.

I have hesitated starting this group with the severe privacy towards my writing and the fear someone else might think it's horrible. I've reached a place in my work where I might need some outside input. I think a place aspiring screenwriters can get together in a safe haven free from negativity can be helpful.

Open to all Los Angeles area screenwriters.  Ink Tank's goals are to make good scripts "great" and help writers to become better readers so they can become better writers.   Our group provides helpful analysis and notes to each other's scripts and provides a positive and professional environment to those looking to break into the film industry.  We are open to reading all genres of feature scripts.

Looking for productive, constructive criticism on your feature? Want to get feedback on a short film or discuss the process of how to get one done? Come join us bi-weekly for that and more.

Welcome! This group is for writers who are serious, dedicated, determined and supportive.

I currently teach classes and workshops around San Diego and run a weekly screenwriting group and understand the …

There are already plenty of writers' groups, but most of them are geared toward hobbyists rather than toward writers who think big (I know because I used to belong to three of them). If you're a self-published author having difficulty selling or promoting your work, or you're a writer who's frustrated by organizers who've told you what you are and aren't allowed to write, or you'd like to write and self-publish but are intimidated by the process, SPACE is for you. My name is Martin, and I've bee …

This group has grown beyond my capacity to manage, so we are currently closed to new members.  In order to re-open the group, I need 2 people to join the leadership team.  If you're interested in becoming an assistant organizer, please contact me directly.

Shut Up and Write! Meetup is a venue for writers to work in the company of other writers on a regular basis. Writing, whether approached as a profession or as an avocation, is an isolating activity. We provide this forum, writing resources and meeting times as a method of developing a community of creative people. We welcome people who are serious about ‘writing down the bones’ and are looking for the companionship of other writers. Meetup Format Making the time to write one hour per week is an …

Let's get together actors, producer, director, camera man and the rest of the crew to make the film. I have the script and wanted to make the movie. If we put all the talented together, we will achieve our goal. If you have any talent regarding to make movie, please join the group. Let me know if you need a copy of the script.

So heres the idea: If you are interested, whether you are a newbie or a professional, come and participate. You want to act? Get up there and don't be shy. You want to learn how to direct? Listen and observe the Director. You have an idea for a movie or short? If your script is ready... lets shoot it. Do all of these things cross your mind like they do mine? Then lets get together and make something. My idea is that we all contribute so that the project gets done. And when its done or almos …

This is a forum group - as in a network for meeting others in the industry. There's a LOT of groups that want to work within themselves, and that is highly restrictive and can produce sub-part content. Feel free to suggest or make any meetups yourself - this is everyone's place to network.

This is an initial invitation to people who want to collaborate to create short films here in the eastern area of Los Angeles County. One of my film professors joked that film industry folks who work and live in Hollywood don't know anything that exists 'east of Pasadena", that Pasadena is "the edge of the known world" to them...similar to the people in Christopher Columbus' time who thought the world was flat and that if you sailed too far, you'd go off the edge into the unknown abyss... This i …

This group is for those who love to act, direct, produce, write, sing or simply perform but may not have been given the opportunities to do so. If you have been told that you were too short, too tall, too old, too young, too thick, too thin, too pretty, too ugly, too experienced, too inexperienced or, like me, have too many scars to be cast then this is the group for you. We will produce theatrical plays, short films, webisodes, viral videos and showcases.  We will form an acting troupe and ca …

Directors, Writers, DPs, Producers, Executives, Production Designers, MakeUp Artists, Wardrobe Stylists, etc, etc, etc all are welcome!

The San Diego Writers group is for anyone who shares an enthusiasm for writing. Our focus is on writing, reviewing each others work and motivating each other to get our projects done. If you are looking for honest and helpful critique of your writing, this group is for you. If you are unwilling or unable to  handle honest and constructive feedback of your work, this group is not for you. We meet six times each month in San Diego! Visit our Facebook page here... http://www.facebook.com/sandiegowr …

The idea of this group is to establish a community of writers that can learn from eachother on many different levels.  Whether this is through critique groups, free writing, reading, talking, etc. I hope that this group has something for everyone. This group welcomes writers of all levels.  This is based on the philosophy that we never really stop learning.  No matter your walk of life, we all have some knowledge to barter. Or pilfer, as book bandits do (no stealing or plagerism is insinuated wi …
