Writers Boot Camp Kicks butt in a creative wayWriters Boot Camp Kicksbutt in a creative way
Ihad met Jeffrey Gordon and Mitch Rubman at their NATPE LATV seminar and eventhough I knew that they have been around for 21 years and have an incredibletrack record for writers, I was even more impressed after listening to Jeff’spresentation on TV Spec scripts and pilots. I felt that it was very importantto share their knowledge. Jeff just plugs you right into the here and now andwants your script to be a winner. He just lays in the groundwork and much moreallowing you to explore not just writing your script but selling it. What isthe current trend and how can your project fit in? His suggestions areinvaluable. So when he invited me to their breakfast event with Ron Taylor, vice president of DiversityDevelopment for 20th Century Fox TV , I thought “What better way tostart the day”? Mark Brennan opened the seminar with a friendly greeting and youknew that this was the start of a good day Iwill give you a brief synopsis of what I heard but I would really suggest thatyou do yourself a big favor and go the next one to see for yourself. First off,the room was packed and the event lasted for 3½ hours and could have gone on even longerbecause of their generosity. This is a hands on event and you will leave with afull stomach and mind filled with creative ideas. The discussion included infoon how to pitch executives, product integration and the most important elementsneed to sell your show.
