Limited to only 5 writers, in these special Group Mentorships you won't just receive feedback on your script(s), but also individual coaching on your pitch, your marketing strategy, and your next steps as you take your screenwriting career to the next level!
You will have the opportunity to share your material with your classmates so that each writer will learn from their own feedback and the feedback given to their peers. You'll also be able to email the host during the week so you are fully guided for the entire month.
We are less concerned with a polished pitch than with the strength and clarity of the idea. Know the audience for your material and be able to compellingly communicate the concept.
