Comment:
I liked her reading recommendations -- Syd Field Screenplay and Plato's poetics -- as a good baseline for the fundamentals of screenwriting. Unfortunately, I can't remember one inspiring thing she's ever said about screenwriting other than "I use to get paid a lot of money when I was young to do this".

Comment:
Writing Comedy for the Situation - fun class. lots of improv at the start and an episode of a sitcom and work on our homework. Knows how to keep class interesting, but maybe not the best at giving us constructive criticism on our scripts. Fun, and understanding. Didnt try as hard as I should have but still got an A.

Comment:
Scriptwriting 1-It's impossible to get an A in her class. She's not helpful at all during class but if you go talk to her outside of class she makes things a little better. I didn't really like her in this class but she is a nice person and can offer a lot of advice in general.

Naomi is helpful, but you really have to pull the information out of her. Pretty judgmental and preferences women's stories obviously. She's better one on one.

Comment:
She's tough. Hard to get a good grade. A feminist. Like's sappy girl stories best, drama! If you have a dude-testosterone-action-packed script, she will probably make you change it. You learn a lot, but take a lot of criticism along the way. Worth it? I don't know. But she's not as bad as everyone says she is. Just intimidating.

she isn't the best teacher. she says that she would try not to input her opinion but she always do. she's really a hypocrite.

Comment:
Are you a female or gay? Yes? You'll do fine. Otherwise she will not like anything you do. You'd get better criticism from your cat. Pay attention to what she does like. She expresses that much better. When she does criticise she will contradict herself over and over again and lead you in fourty billion bad directions. She wrote for Lifetime.
