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.

Why you? Why now? I had these questions etched into my brain as a young writer and developer. Within the first few minutes of the pitch, I want to know why you want to write this and/or why you're the right person to write this. And I want to know why this is a story that needs to be told right now. In other words, what themes are you exploring that makes your piece feel of-the-moment.
