What to Expect
It's important for every writer to have a solid script AND to show executives that they are collaborative and professional to work with. Limited to only 5 writers, these 2-week Rewrite Clinics are designed to give writers an opportunity to develop a solid script and collaborate with an industry professional.
The executive will read your script and in an online roundtable with only 4 other writers, you will have 25 minutes to receive notes from your executive, get to know them, and let them get to know you!
Then you will have a week between sessions to revise your pages and in the second roundtable, you'll have another 25-minute meeting to talk about the submitted revisions.
Joining Sessions
Rewrite Clinics meet online via virtual classroom utilizing video conferencing software ZOOM.

| Character is always king, and so is your pilot (in TV)! Don't get bogged down in endless plot details and boxes that need to be checked for your third season. Focus on the actual STORY and who's inside of it. |
Everything, other than books! Almost any genre other than rom-coms and fantasy -- and when it comes to TV, I'm happy to look at any format.
As much as I objectively appreciate them as genres, fantasy and romantic comedies just aren't my bag -- at least not in a way where I can be helpful as a note giver.
Max Cunningham currently works as a Writers’ Assistant on the show TULSA KING. Prior to that, he spent four years at Berlanti Productions, a company whose credits include YOU, THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT, RIVERDALE, ALL AMERICAN, THE FLASH, and SUPERMAN AND LOIS. Max first worked for their head of television development, Ryan Lindenberg, learning the ins and outs of how a television series actually moves from an early-stage pitch to a finished pilot in both broadcast and streaming. After being promoted to Greg Berlanti’s desk, Max was offered the chance to write an episode of SUPERMAN & LOIS. This led to a chance to work on the show as their Writers’ Assistant for their next two seasons, where he also was able to write two more scripts for the show, before transitioning to TULSA KING.
Max graduated with honors from the University of Arizona, with a degree in English Literature and a minor in Film & Television.
As a fan of Berlanti Productions, I was initially nervous, but Max's polite and friendly nature really put me at ease. He is highly insightful, especially when it comes to storytelling and was able to offer notes that turned my story from being just a great script into something that could possibly be a very exciting TV show. I would certainly work with him again.

Max's feedback pushed our feature in an exciting direction! Well worth the cost of the program!
