script development
Script&pitch workshops
mglab italia srl
Description
this is an advanced course following the whole scriptwriting process from the pitching of ideas to the treatment, through the first and second draft up to a final pitch in front of a panel of international producers, sales agents and other industry professionals from all over the world.
The course consists of:
- three week-long residential workshops in different eu cities;
- two on-line sessions;
- an alumni meeting.
There are five groups with one tutor each. After the final pitching (in turin) up to six development awards are given, providing the possibility of further developing the project during one more year with the torinoFilmLab experts. Script&pitch tries to create as many synergies as possible, so that participants can become part of a network and build their own. Script&pitch puts a lot of energy into consolidating this network, e.g. through the alumni meeting.
