Do you feel like you have a whole host of ideas rattling around in your head but have no idea which one to focus on? Do you want guidance and advice as you prepare something new? Do you want a weekly meeting with tailored assignments to hold you accountable as you develop your next project?
If you said yes to any of these, then an Incubator is just what the doctor ordered! This four-week class will put you through your development paces and ensure that you get writing on the best foot possible.
This Class Will Cover:
- Story structure
- Keeping conflict interesting and escalating
- Crafting satisfying character arcs
- And more!
A strong concept with a unique perspective, regardless of how big or small its intended budget. Characters should be front and center, because they will be how I relate to the theme and story, and driving the pitch through their needs is just as important as it is driving the narrative.
Feature genre scripts that are rich in authenticity, unafraid of taking risks, and bring a perspective that challenges preconceptions. Off-kilter stories or human-interest dramedies that make bold statements but aren’t necessarily busting the budget. Also, audio drama podcasts.
Kyle is a Los Angeles-based producer, writer, and development exec with almost two decades of experience in the business. An Emerson College graduate, he is one half of the creative team behind FilmFrontier Studios.
Their debut feature production, the dramatic sci-fi/thriller THE VEIL, recently premiered at the HP Lovecraft Film Festival in Portland, OR, before screening as an official Dark Matters selection at Austin Film Festival's 30th Anniversary.
His podcast experience includes hosting an interview show with filmmaking creatives called MAKE YOUR SH*T. Previously, he co-produced and story consulted on the award-winning audiodrama podcast A PLACE CALLED FAIRNECK.
He has also been a freelance and contracted script development consultant, having run several major screenwriting contests and development programs around the industry.
I really appreciated Kyle's energy and enthusiasm. It gave me the boost I needed to get through a pretty heavy re-write that I hadn't been looking forward to!
