On this week’s episode of Film Rhapsody, Russell down with his mentor Karel Segers, for a one on one chat about writing, storytelling, and everything in between.  After years working as a story consultant, Karel has taught and lectured across the world, founding Immersion Screenwriting, and spearheading the Accelerator Pod that brought Russell and I together. He has played pivotal roles in helping writers take their writing to the next level, and just this year he played an important role in bringing the feature “Danger Close” to the cinemas.A few years ago, he stopped teaching his flagship screenwriting course The Story Series, at the height of its success. Students were loving the course, and kept coming back for seconds. But not enough writers to his taste finished their scripts. So, Karel developed an online course that would allow anyone to learn screenwriting from home, while actually writing every day.The course teaches screenwriting by osmosis, and is called Immersion Screenwriting. There are three versions of the course: The 'big boys' Platinum version, that runs for 6 months, or the standard version that runs for 50 days. You can take the standard version to learn writing for feature film or television, and the cost is USD$99, but we can offer our listeners discount of 50%!When you order the course, just enter the code PODCAST50 on checkout.To find the course, just navigate to http://screenwriting.coursesOr for more information, just email: k@tsd.im
