You have all the elements of a great Spec: a great show, an original premise and a solid beat sheet. Unfortunately, the thought of actually writing the spec draft fills you with dread every time you stare down at the blank screen. No problem!
Vicky Castro (ABC/Disney Fellow, THE GOLDBERGS) will take you through the paces in this Online TV Spec Draft Writing Workshop. She will help you hone your beat sheets, turn them into an outline, and craft your fresh new take on an existing show with pizazz. Vicky will also show you how to write that killer opening scene and turn your detailed roadmap into literary gold. By the end of the class, you’ll have made progress on your first draft and be on your to way to revising it. Fellowship invitation not included.
After studying with us, our alums have landed 404 staff writing positions on shows including FARGO, PERRY MASON, AMERICAN BORN CHINESE, THE BROTHERS SUN, FRASIER and DAVE and won 178 fellowships/staffing program spots at organizations including Disney, NBCU, WB, Paramount & Disruptors.
