Do you have a great idea for Netflix or Amazon’s next hit series? Let successful TV writers Justin Calen-Chenn (Exec Story Editor, BEL-AIR, 12 scripts sold) and Ally Seibert (Co-EP, Netflix’s BROTHERS SUN, Starz, CHICAGO FIRE) help you transform your brilliant premise into a page-turning script!
In this Online TV Pilot writing class, you’ll learn how to craft a great logline, structure a compelling story, plan a season arc that keeps the audience hooked, and break your pilot story just like they do in the writer’s room.
Justin and Ally will show you how to dramatize and sprinkle in the right amount of plot, character and story for a one-hour show. Through in-class work shopping and pitching, you’ll clarify your tone, voice and world. By the end of this class, you’ll have created a Beat Sheet for your TV Pilot. Students can work on a 1/2 hour comedy, dramedy or 1 hour drama pilot in this class.
After studying with us, our alums have landed 402 staff writing positions on shows including FARGO, PERRY MASON, AMERICAN BORN CHINESE, THE BROTHERS SUN, FRASIER and DAVE and won 173 fellowships/staffing program spots at organizations including Disney, NBCU, WB, Paramount & Disruptors.
Note: If you’ve never taken a TV writing class before, we strongly recommend you take TV Dramedy 101 and TV Structure for Pilot Writing in addition to this class.
