Work one-on-one with an executive at mutually agreed upon times around your schedule. To start, you'll have a 15-minute strategy call with your executive to get the lay of the land for the month. Then, you’ll have email access to your executive throughout, plus four one-hour story notes sessions. Work on a single screenplay or multiple scripts plus get additional notes on your pitch, brand strategy, and career advice - work your mentorship to its fullest potential!
If you can pitch your concept is one sentence at the top, the easier it will be for the listener to understand the world you're building. I'd spend less time walking the listener through your concept's exposition and more time fleshing out characters that people can either be fascinated by or fall in love with.
- Stories based on real people with a contemporary edge
- Character-driven dramas (TV and feature)
- TV formats (one-hour dramas/dramedies)
- Female-driven comedies (TV and feature)
Period pieces across film and TV are really difficult to sell right now.
