How does it work?
- During the programme participants will be divided into three groups (two groups will develop full-length film projects and one group will develop TV series), with four projects in each group.
- Each of the groups has its own lead screenwriting tutor who supervises the projects through all the workshops.
- Through the entire course the producers will be guided by a production tutors who will help to develop the project from the production perspective.
- The film groups develop projects from the synopsis stage (initial concept) to the script’s second draft.
- The TV series group develops their concepts for a TV series, the outline of the first season, a synopsis of all the episodes, and the script for the pilot episode.
- The producers take part in all the creative work on the screenplay while also preparing the project’s financial strategy, a marketing plan, a budget and za production package for the project.
