“Craft Your Future: Surviving and Thriving as a Screenwriter”
Great event coming up hosted by the Writers Guild Foundation:
Sat, June 29, 2013
10:00 AM — 6:00 PM
This year, we’re going all out for our Screenwriting Craft Symposium, with an entire day’s worth of panels full of exciting guests:
- John August and Craig Mazin, who will record an episode of their SCRIPTNOTES podcast at the event — and take questions from all of you;
- Travis Beacham (writer, PACIFIC RIM);
- Karl Gajdusek (writer, OBLIVION);
- Evan Daugherty (writer, the upcoming KILLING SEASON starring Robert De Niro)
- Edward Ricourt (writer, NOW YOU SEE ME);
- Franklin Leonard, founder of The Black List;
- Greg Beal, director of the Academy Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting;
- Matt Dy, Screenplay & Teleplay Competition Director for the Austin Film Festival.
- And more!
We’re still bringing more panelists on board, so check back here for updates.
The Early Bird discount is still available. So get your tickets now!
Tickets are $85 which you can get here.
I should note the Black List is one of the event’s sponsors and the simple fact Franklin is going to be participating tells you how valuable the day’s activities promise to be.
Plus all you fans of John August and Craig Mazin’s weekly podcast “SCRIPTNOTES” will be to take part in a live recording session. For screenwriters, that’s like going to a live recording of Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me, A Prairie Home Companion, and This American Life all rolled into one.
Also the next few weeks, I’ll be hawking this event with some giveaways, so you can look for that.
Again you can purchase tickets for the Early Bird price of $85 here.
