Script&Pitch Workshops 2008
Application deadline: Thursday, February 7th 2008
This is a post-graduate course open to professional European scriptwriters, story editors, and graduates from European film schools, writer-directors, writer-producers and development executives.
The course lasts 10 months and we select 20 participants from all over Europe (16 scriptwriters and 4 story editors) who will follow the whole scriptwriting process, offering education through the development of projects: From the generating of ideas and structuring of the material through a first and second draft up to a final pitch in front of invited producers and sales agents.
A primary aim is to advance writers? and story editors? professional skills. The passion and knowledge of our tutors is therefore an important energy for the workshops. A second aim is to create a vibrant network for our participants and we therefore connect Script&Pitch with festivals and industry-events, seeking producers who are interested in writers and development, not just in single projects.
