Harriette Yahr is a great champion of talent. Her empathy, heart and hard advice is invaluable. I worked with her on early drafts of my recent screenplay (The Most Famous Woman in the World) and found her feedback extremely helpful. Not only is she a pro at screenwriting and filmmaking, but more importantly she’s a lovely human being.

I can’t recommend Harriette Yahr’s screenwriting workshop highly enough. I’ve already signed up for her advanced screenwriting workshop this summer.

Harriette Yahr’s practical experience as a filmmaker who understands every part of filmmaking from writing and directing to cinematography -- and even producing and editing -- makes her one of the best film and screenwriting teachers anywhere.

Harriette, Thanks again for a WONDERFUL introduction to screenwriting. It's wonderful to find teachers that both inform and inspire. I really feel like I have the tools to move forward with my script, and it couldn't be more perfect timing!

I had attended many screenwriting workshops in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and even London so when a workshop was finally offered in my home town of Miami I thought 'I can't take another class! What could I get out of it that I haven't gotten from all the rest?' I was wrong. Harriette Yahr's expertise and great skill as a teacher presented crucial material the other courses somehow overlooked and the intimate size of this class allows for one on one guidance on writing assignments.

I would recommend this screenwriting class to anyone who is starting out as a screenwriter, or to anyone who is a screenwriter looking to brush up his/her skills and learn the latest ideas and techniques. Harriette is an easy going, easy to understand teacher who is filled with a wealth of knowledge about not only the craft, but the business. I can't wait for the more advanced class.

Bill Butland

I wrote a script not long before your class and with your teachings I was able to improve it tremendously to the point that it is now ready to present to potential talent and distributors. I look forward to attend more of your filmmakers classes and will certainly recommend it to others. Thank you very much.

Harriette is a font of knowledge of information on the film industry. She connects well with the students and maintains a relationship afterwards.

Harriette Yahr has been a powerful cinematic midwife towards getting clarity on my upcoming project. I would recommend her to anyone at any point of their process of their film project as a consultant, pathfinder and coach. A beautiful person and a beautiful mind.

It is rare to find someone as inquisitive, dedicated and passionate as Harriette. She engages with your material, teases out the weak spots, finds the good, gives you and your material a spotlight gaze. She is generous and positive with her critique. She is always looking to make your material better.

Harriette is an easy-going, upbeat and effective teacher with a lot of useful information to share. In one day of studying with her, I learned everything I needed to make an interesting video clip to further my business. I highly recommend taking a class with her if you get the chance.

I am a late night person and Harriette Yahr made getting up early Saturday morning worthwhile. She demonstrates a command for filmmaking that reflects her depth of knowledge and experience. Ms. Yahr taps into the challenges of a writer with ease. She enthusiastically shares information to help her students build a strong, writing foundation. Harriette Yahr exceeded my expectations and I can hardly wait to learn more from her soon.

Harriette Yahr is a gifted and knowledgeable teacher. In only 4 sessions, I picked up more practical knowledge than I achieved in an entire quarter of a previous writers' workshop.
