Hello!
There is a GREAT group coming to the Storywise Seminar at The Writers Junction on Saturday. I am almost full but I have a few slots left. You can still sign up and get the discounted price by selecting the PayPal button below.
At the seminar, I will be giving out a new workbook that is probably my strongest one so far. It is 46 pages and covers the breakdowns of 5 new pilots and three standout episodes of current series. It will be for sale starting next week. If you come to the seminar, it is included in the price.
If you've been to one of my seminars you know that my approach to teaching is to make it fun. My goal is to have you hit several "aha" moments when it comes to how you can apply it to your writing. It's about building community. Seminars are the best way to meet people and make contacts.
If you forward this e-mail to any of your friends that you feel will benefit from this experience, they will also get the discount price.
STORYWISE SEMINAR - STORY STRUCTURE FOR TV SPECS AND PILOT
SCRIPTSSaturday, July 17, 2010 from 4:00 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. at
the Writers Junction at 1001 Colorado Ave., Santa Monica 90401. MIXER to follow at Salute Wine Bar, 2435 Main St., SM 90405
This  two and a half hour seminar will go in depth into story
structure for television spec and pilot scripts. In the seminar, as well
as in the workbook, I will break down
several of the current shows that make strong specs. With each show that
I break down, I will write a formula that will help you to write a
strong spec script from the show. In our discussions about pilot structure, we will go
over the top pilots picked up this year. In the
workbook, I will break down their story structure and how you can learn
from them to improve your writing. We will also go into universal
moments, theme, symbolism and messages. The seminar will be all about
guiding you to write standout TV spec and pilot scripts that increase
your chances of getting staffed and selling a pilot.
I am on a roll. Twelve writers have been staffed that I've worked with over the past two years. My feeling is why not YOU?
The
cost of this event is
$85.00. Your price is $70.00.
This is my last Storywise Seminar for this year. There is only space for 50. I would suggest signing up sooner rather than later for this one.
There is going to be a networking mixer after this event at Salute Wine Bar in Santa Monica from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Salute is located at 2435 Main St., Santa Monica, CA 90405
