WORKSHOP: How to get your script production-ready & break into the writers room

And another one…

I'm joining @womensweekendfilmchallenge on 12/3 for a workshop on getting your script ready for production on a hit show and breaking into the writers room! I'll also walk you through the process of getting a script ready for production, including how professional writers rooms color code various drafts and how to format a title page and set list. Tickets are pay-what-you-can. Link in @womensweekendfilmchallenge bio and here: https://bit.ly/33y0KEh .

About this Event

What does a script coordinator do, and how does that role help you break into the writers room?

Can you get hired without representation?

What does it take to get a script production-ready?

I will answer these questions and many more during this live virtual workshop! Also talk about my experience working on shows including "Lovecraft Country," "Family Reunion," "Being Mary Jane," "The Haunting of Bly Manor" and more! 

Plus, I will share samples of the scripts from one of my shows. I’ll walk attendees through the process of getting a script ready for production, including how professional writers rooms color code various drafts and how to format a title page and set list. This is your window into the writers room of your favorite TV series!

Because we know that the film community has been hit hard at this time, the event is pay-what-you-can. All proceeds will go toward keeping Women's Weekend Film Challenge running during this difficult time. As a small arts nonprofit, we depend on donations to run our free film challenges and pay-what-you-can workshops. Thank you for making whatever contribution is possible for you right now.

By signing up for this event, you will receive occasional emails from Women's Weekend Film Challenge for future free and pay-what-you-can events.

ABOUT WOMEN'S WEEKEND FILM CHALLENGE

Women's Weekend Film Challenge (WWFC) works for gender equity by creating opportunities for women to bring their leadership, talents, and stories to the forefront of the film industry. WWFC places professional filmmakers on crews to write, shoot and edit a short film in one weekend and provides top-of-the-line equipment, insurance and workshops. This career-building opportunity is free for participants.

Since its first challenge in January 2018, WWFC has worked with over 700 women to produce 30 short films, which have been accepted to more than 80 festivals. This grassroots, bi-coastal movement combats the gender imbalance of the film industry by providing an intensive networking experience and telling women's stories on screen.

WWFC’s virtual workshop series is made possible in part with funds from the Decentralization Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and administered by the Queens Council on the Arts.
