The Ten Commandments of Aaron Sorkin with Bob Schultz
33 five-star reviews from writers who took this course.
“Insightful, exhaustive and really well delivered. Bob’s stamina and enthusiasm were incredible.”
“One of the best workshops I’ve ever taken online, smart, funny and very hands on with different writing exercises. In this “Zoom era” it’s very obvious, who can teach online and you can not. And Bob is brilliant at keeping you on your toes for hours and definitely knows his craft. This class is like a movie well made, everything just works, makes sense and shifts your perspective in an very interesting way.”
“Bob as brilliant tutor. The commandments with curated clips and then a writing exercise format of today worked really well.”

“There were so many great examples of what Bob was training and I loved the writing exercises. His enthusiasm and passion for the world of scripts comes across in his excellent ability to guide you through these processes. He’s really friendly and approachable and makes you feel comfortable and part of the group. You wont regret taking this workshop. I’ve come away full of ideas on how to strengthen my writing.”

“Bob’s concept and creation of the SorkinMandments is a great way to explore Sorkin’s successes, and he uses great choice of movie clips… both old and new… all were excellent examples of the applicable SorkinMandments. The pacing of the class is great and Bob is great at presenting concepts in a lively and accessible fashion and keeping on point, with an emphasis on taking action by providing writing exercises and time to write within the class. Overall I love the passion and encouragement Bob gives as a presenter, teacher and facilitator.”
Terry HicksWriter★★★★★“Building the first three exercises together created a lightbulb moment for me and I could see how my scenes could improve massively.”
Paula GlenisterScreenwriter★★★★★“It is tremendously insightful and I actually watched Sorkin’s own ‘MasterClass’ series straight afterwards (which Bob’s webinar references occasionally), but on the whole I found Bob’s session much more practical, and actually more astute in drawing out WHAT Sorkin does and HOW he does it. At a fraction of the price, too. Great work Bob. Recommended”
