Ultimately there are a lot of right answers here. Each project is different but the note that remains the same is you need to understand your show inside and out. Be ready to answer everything, from the logistical (how does this story move forward?) to the more abstract (how do characters A and B influence one another?). Showing that confidence in yourself as a creator and your show as a viable project are crucial. In terms of general specifics I look for—In TV, your characters make or break your project. Underdeveloped characters put a show in jeopardy. Make them strong! In film, strong characters are crucial, but structure is key. Know the ins and outs of your project!
Primarily focused in the Comedy space—all styles, particularly those blending Comedy/Drama elements well (i.e. RUSSIAN DOLL, BARRY). On the Drama side: biopics, historical works, and high-concept storylines.
Not actively seeking projects in the Fantasy or Supernatural spaces.
