If there's one element of the craft that gets a reader hooked on a script, it's voice. If your voice is strong in your opening pages, readers and execs are far less likely to put your script down before finishing it.
But developing your voice isn't easy. That's why Roadmap's CEO Joey Tuccio is hosting this special Webinar + Clinic to help you make your voice as strong as possible!
Developing Your Voice will start with a Webinar on some of the immediate reasons an executive might pass on your work when starting to read your script...and you might not even know you're doing one of these things! Remember, most execs won't read past page 5 if they aren't totally hooked and confident in the writer.
Following Webinar, up to 8 writers can sign up for the Clinic and receive feedback on their opening 3 pages.
This Two Week Clinic Will Cover:
- What is "voice" and how do you develop it?
- Writing economically and effectively
- Proper presentation and formatting
- Examples and case studies
- Feedback on your opening 3 pages (clinic only)
Joey started in the industry at Bold Films (DRIVE, NIGHTCRAWLER, WHIPLASH) and has read for Hugh Jackman's company, George Clooney's company, and Night and Day Pictures, to name a few. Experiencing how hard it was for writers to receive real tangible advice on how to break into the industry, Joey and Dorian created Roadmap Writers over 6 years ago. At Roadmap, Joey focuses on connecting vetted writers with execs in the industry. He has helped hundreds of writers connect to their representation, get staffed and get produced. He also mentors for Cinestory and The Writers Lab. When he's not helping writers, he spends his time rescuing animals in need.
