Television pilot
writing was once a carefully guarded inner sanctum limited almost
exclusively to showbiz insiders. With the recent explosion of
successful cable dramas and Internet viewing, it’s now possible for
writers without a strong track record or network connections to get
producers and executives to read and sometimes even buy their pilot
scripts. If you sell a pilot, you’ve reached the pinnacle of TV writing
success. It’s extremely satisfying to see your brainchild come to life
on the screen, and it can lead to an extremely lucrative career in
writing, production, or “show-running.”
In this
workshop, you will learn the tools professional
screenwriters use to finish high-quality scripts under deadlines. By
the end of this workshop, you will have completed and received
professional feedback on a script for your drama pilot.
