Helen Jacey is a professional screenwriter, lecturer and author. She graduated from her MA in Screenwriting at the London Institute in 2001 and gained her doctorate from the University of Arts London.

Craig Batty is a screenwriter, a script consultant, and script editor, and the author of several books, including Screenplays: How to Write and Sell Them."
