Writing is Rewriting Bootcamp

You finished a first draft. Or a 90th draft. Maybe it’s messy, maybe it’s polished. Either way, this bootcamp is built to push your feature or TV script to the next emotional level. Through targeted storytelling questions, scene study, and spontaneous writing exercises, you’ll learn not to overthink. To surprise yourself. To write a story that no one else can write. You’ll walk away inspired to revise and confident about the major turns of your script.

Blue Sky Bootcamp

You have an idea. It just came to you, or you’ve had it for years. This bootcamp helps you crack it open and discover the key moments, the causal chain, and the unique feelings underneath it all. By the end, you’ll have a comprehensive beatsheet and a clear plan for writing the script. TV sessions include bonus pitching tips, and every session covers the festivals and programs that really matter.
