What to Expect
It's important for every writer to have a solid script AND to show executives that they are collaborative and professional to work with. Limited to only 5 writers, these 2-week Rewrite Clinics are designed to give writers an opportunity to develop a solid script and collaborate with an industry professional.
The executive will read your script and meet with you one-on-one for 25 minutes. You'll receive notes from your executive, get to know them, and let them get to know you!
Then you will have a week between sessions to revise your pages and in the second roundtable, you'll have another 25-minute meeting to talk about the submitted revisions.
Joining Sessions
Rewrite Clinics meet online via virtual classroom utilizing video conferencing software ZOOM.

Stories driven by women and people of color, stories fronted by characters with disabilities, explorations of neurodivergence. I'd particularly love to see this in the comedy, romance/romantic comedy, and sci-fi genres!
War, historical, crime/true crime
Octavia Bray is a television writer and podcast addict currently developing an animated show for Nickelodeon with WVE. She received her BA in Communications and East Asian Languages and Civilizations from the University of Pennsylvania, then veered to receive her MFA in Writing and Producing for Television from Loyola Marymount University.
Octavia was previously staffed on Disney Channel's RAVEN'S HOME and previously sold a pitch to Disney Channel. A child of divorce twice over, Octavia has one mom, two dads, and seven siblings of varying degrees of blood relation.

Octavia has also written for podcasts like Hallmark's CRIMSON HEARTS COLLIDE, ABF x Wondery's ADVENTURES OF CAIRO, Atypical Artists' THE AM ARCHIVES, Rusty Quill's CRY HAVOC, ASK QUESTIONS LATER, and her own sci-fi(ish) rom-com LIFE WITH LEO(h).
