You're writing, you're pitching, you're hustling your butt off—it finally pays off and you score: The General Meeting. What the heck is that and what is expected of you? Top Tier alumna Emma Steele, recently signed to Gersh and one of Roadmap's own success stories, is here to tell you what it's like on the writer’s side of the table for general meetings. In January, Emma attended over 30 general meetings in two weeks, racking up a wealth of knowledge that she will share with you so you can be a pro before you're even in the room.
This 90-Min. Webinar Covers:
- What a general meeting is
- How you get one
- How to pitch/when to pitch in the meeting—reading the room!
- How to get to know the exec
- What you should come prepared with
Emma has written and produced over a thousand hours of Australian TV series, including the 2024 Daytime Emmy nominated NEIGHBOURS (Amazon Prime, Freevee), WENTWORTH (Netflix) and MISS FISHER’S MURDER MYSTERIES (Netflix). She has optioned a 1hr horror series to a US producer, developed TV series for both broadcast and cable in Australia and New Zealand and has been nominated twice for an Australian Writers Guild award.
After growing up in country South Australia, the driest state on the driest continent in the world, Emma bounced around from town to town, always the outsider in the unfamiliar, tormented by nightmares and longing for escape. And Emma’s constant was her male-dominated family of civil engineers. So Emma writes the hell out of her childhood, using genre as a lens to thematically explore the environment, family, whether by blood or found, and her projects are female-driven or heavily female-focused.
