It usually goes like this: the pilot is all that network
execs are really interested in at first. That's because the pilot
demonstrates basic writing and gives them a sense of where things will
go (the season's "map" is built into any good pilot). But
once they've decided they like a pilot, then they want to see more—your
series bible, particularly the first season's sketch.
A strong series bible is a crucial sales tool for your
series. This workshop will help you get your TV series ready for an
executive by developing your series premise, honing your pilot, and
writing your series bible.
