UPCOMING EVENTS FOR JEN GRISANTI CONSULTANCY INC.
Thank you to all who have signed up for the Storywise Teleseminar. 

The sign ups are coming in.  I am full at the upper levels but have plenty of room for people to sign up for Level 1.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE TELESEMINAR
For those participating, here is what to expect:  You will call in on Sundays at 4:00 p.m.  The call in information will be sent to you.  The call will last from 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. PST.  On the call, I will give instructions on what we are covering that week.  For example, week 1 will be the concept sheet.  We'll go over what is expected at this stage in the process.  You will have access to the 5 concept sheets that the writers who signed up at the upper level wrote.  I will give you general comments on this phase and then we will go over the submitted concept sheets to help you understand the note giving process.  You will receive handouts for each week.  You will be able to e-mail questions you have to my assistant, Chitra, during the call.  I will address questions during the last 10 minutes of the call or at the beginning of the call the following week.  The process will repeat for each phase, the outline, the script and the rewrite of the script.  On the last call, I will also cover some career tips including meetings and networking.

This newsletter is just for the attendees of the Storywise Seminar on Saturday February 27th at UCLA, the discount is nontransferable.  I am offering you a 15% discount on the teleseminar and you can take advantage of this discount by signing up using one of the paypal buttons below.  

STORYWISE TELESEMINAR - 10 WEEKS TO A COMPLETED SPEC AND PILOT SCRIPT
The new start date of the Storywise Teleseminar has been changed to Sunday, April 11, 2010. 

We also redesigned the Storywise Teleseminar into two classes.  The spec script writing class will be the first 5 weeks.  Then, there will be a week break.  Then, the pilot script writing class will begin Sunday, May 16th and last 5 weeks.  You can sign up for either or both.  You will complete your spec scripts in time for most of the writing program submission deadlines and you will complete pilots in time for development.  You have the potential to complete two scripts in 10 weeks all from the comfort of your own home.

Significantly increase your chances of success this year by using Jen's guidance and feedback to complete a new spec script and a new pilot script in time for staffing and development. 

The following promo was specially prepared by Superneato Productions to answer your questions about the Storywise Teleseminar:
