Jen Grisanti Consultancy is hosting the first Storywise Seminar at UCLA on Saturday, September 20, 2008 from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  There are only a few days left to get the special rate for early sign up.

 

What inspired me to offer a seminar?  I recognize the value of information.  As a television executive for over a decade at top studios and working with some of the most talented people in the business, I was privy to a lot of valuable information that could benefit the writer and director.  By opening my own business this year and applying the gifts I learned from positive mentors, I've seen first hand what giving people the right information can do to help them fulfill their potential and reach their goals. 

 

I designed this initial seminar to give writers and directors the points of view from Current Programs, Development and the Executive Producer.  These are the people who staff for television and hire feature writers; and they know what it takes to break in.  By hearing our stories and engaging in the Q&A, participants will greatly enhance their business awareness and creative processes. 

  

The highly accomplished executives I invited to join this event include Glen Mazzara, Executive Producer/Showrunner of the upcoming series CRASH on Starz, Elisa Roth, Sr. VP, Drama Programs, Universal Media Studios and Gaylyn Fraiche, VP, Martin Chase Productions.

 

Please forward this e-mail to anyone who you feel would benefit from this event.
