About Screenwriter's Edge
Screenwriter’s Edge is led by Terry Dray, an honours graduate in filmmaking and a Master’s graduate in screenwriting with more than three decades of experience across production, performance, and development.
The work here focuses on the structural mechanics of story: how pressure, decision, and consequence shape narrative movement.
Revenue from courses and script development is reinvested into ongoing development and the production of new short films.
