WHERE: Online • Zoom
LENGTH: 2.5 hours • Once a Week • 10 Weeks
PRICE: $350 (individual writer) • $500 (writing team)
Honestly, there are a hundred ways to write a great TV pitch. Yeah, you can use A.I., but execs can spot that sort of indistinct swill a mile away.
It took me six years to come up with an effective approach to the pitch — working with a brilliant showrunner, pitching a dozen projects to dozens of executives. Eventually we landed on a format which help us sell pitches to Hulu, Peacock, HBO Max, and Apple TV+.
Over the ten weeks, we’ll develop your materials together, and distill the creative elements — your personal connection to the project, your characters, story engines, themes, tone, and visual deck — into a market-ready presentation.
Writers who show up and do the weekly assignments will finish the workshop with:
A draft of your pitch document
A visual deck
A practice run of your pitch with your workshop peers (Class sizes are small so everyone gets plenty of time for notes and feedback)
I don’t pretend to guarantee success or forecast trends. I’ve pitched projects that sold, died, and came back to life several times over the years. Even with all the right elements in place, TV development can be a disorienting experience, but hopefully this workshop helps you build stable infrastructure within your own creative practice.
Workshops are not recorded. Once classes begin there are refunds, and no make up dates.
If you have any questions, please e-mail me.
