STORYWISE TELESEMINAR - 10 WEEKS TO A COMPLETED SPEC AND PILOT SCRIPTMy desire to use my expertise to provide you with the tools you need for career success inspired my upcoming Storywise Teleseminar.  The spec script portion begins Sunday, April 11, 2010.  The pilot script portion begins Sunday, May 23, 2010.
In this weekly teleseminar, you will receive 10 hours of instruction on the phone on how to write a standout spec script and pilot script.  Rates start at low as $125.00.

The spec script writing class will be the first 5 weeks.  Then, there will be a week break.  Then, the pilot script writing class will begin Sunday, May 16th and last 5 weeks.  You can sign up for either or both.  You will complete your spec scripts in time for most of the writing program submission deadlines and you will complete pilots in time for development.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE STORYWISE TELESEMINAR
For those participating, here is what to expect:  You will call in on Sundays at 4:00 p.m.  The call in information will be sent to you.  The call will last from 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. PST.  On the call, I will give instructions on what we are covering that week.  For example, week 1 will be the concept sheet.  We'll go over what is expected at this stage in the process.  You will have access to the 5 concept sheets that the writers who signed up at the upper level wrote.  I will give you general comments on this phase and then we will go over the submitted concept sheets to help you understand the note giving process.  You will receive handouts for each week.  You will be able to e-mail questions you have to my assistant, Chitra, during the call.  I will address questions during the last 10 minutes of the call or at the beginning of the call the following week.  The process will repeat for each phase, the outline, the script and the rewrite of the script.  On the last call, I will also cover some career tips including meetings and networking.
