Comment:
This was a great workshop class, really fun, and Martie knows a lot about television and all but I feel like it didn't really come through here. She had trouble controlling the class and let dumb people ramble about dumb things, and the people to be workshopped last got less time. But her direct notes and investment in my script were very helpful.

Comment:
Probably the most helpful class I've had so far. Martie is very blunt sometimes but its very refreshing compared to the "EVERYONE IS TALENTED!" crap they feed you at Emerson. She has real world experience and will teach you way more than just how to write. For example, the one thing they really don't tell you at Emerson: how to find a job.

Martie cook is awesome! She knows first hand what she is teaching and offers great, real-world advice. Her lectures are engaging and I couldn't wait for class. Writing was not my thing, but she helped me find my niche. By far the best professor I have had at the school.

One of the few teachers who I feel actually prepared me for work in the industry. Intelegent, sardonic, and often intimidating, but ultimately pushes you to produce your best work and be on your A game.

she makes you work hard and definitly gives you good advice for the future. she makes you realize and go through actions with professionalism of the buisness. i wish there had been a revision of our final scripts we wrote though instead of some other earlier assignments we did.

had martie twice so far, and she is without a doubt the best prof here. pushes you to be professional, grades tough but hey thats life, doesnt give you an A just for doing it. knows her stuff, if youre writing crap shell let you know. if you want to work in the business, you shouldnt graduate without taking a class with her. highly recommended.

Martie was a great teacher. Would help you if needed it, and has a very professional approach to the business, which most of the liberal arts students don't get but will when they get out of school and loan payments start adding up. Highly suggest her

Great teacher. She knows TONS about the industry and how to write movies. She's nice, funny, and helpful. Be ready to prepare for a big project. You will write an entire scene-by-scene outline for a FEATURE LENGTH film - which is very detailed and time consuming. Get your work in ON TIME - or she will fail you - no joke. awesome class!

Bottom line: Martie knows the business and she knows it well. I learned more about how to break into the hollywood writing game more than I actually learned how to write. Her lectures on how to pitch, get agents, get shows produced, and basically make it were fascinating. Recommend Highly.

Great talks about how to get a job, persistence and being professional. Her class assignments were fun and thought provoking. A lot of creative flexibility with the course, yet I feel like it was almost too easy. Slacking off was common.

Martie is an excellent teacher. Very tough, but in the end you'll appreciate her for it. I got to write my own spec script, 45 pages long, which I finished at the end of the semester.

Awesome, awesome teacher. She knows her stuff and she will teach you the basics about different forms of writing for various media. My best class/prof at Emerson, hands down. WLP kids should take this class with her simply for all the writing that's done. Awesome, awesome woman. I love Martie.
