THE SPARC SCRIPTWRITING INTENSIVE

"The course was thought-provoking and very informative! It helped me to see the connection between story-telling and the way it reflects reality and how God works in our lives. I would highly recommend it!" - Nicola Stevens, Queensland.

"Loved it! Reignited a passion and desire that i had years ago to create a feature film that could influence a world for God - yet till i did this course i felt it was way out of my reach and ability. Now I have the confidence and tools to accomplish what I could have only dreamed about doing." - Joel Harding. Queensland.

 "Simon enthralled us for the whole weekend. Like a movie that only disappoints because it has to end! Thank you and God bless you and the films you have sparc'd in us." - Mark Dando, Sydney.

 "Beyond expectations!! Freedom to incorporate Christian flavour to discussion, very exciting. Tangible direction and method to approach an artistic endeavour. Mightily impressed. Thank you." - Judith Bryan-Morton, Sydney.
