First Script&Pitch and Writer's Room workshop
Script&Pitch 2012, Writer's Room 20129-15 March, 2012
Helsingborg, Sweden
This session takes place in Helsingborg (Sweden) in March, thanks to the partnership with BoostHBG and Film i Skåne. The Script&Pitch groups begin to share their stories and pitching is immediately introduced as a development tool. The groups start working on participants’ projects, focusing on story, theme, character and setting the bases for the actual writing of the step outline during the first on-line session. Participants follow lessons on specific aspects of scriptwriting held by the tutors and have sessions of pitching in combined groups. They learn why pitching skills can be really useful for scriptwriters and how they can improve the focus of their dramatic idea for a script through a pitching process. The story editor trainees have special meetings and they start their parallel training process.
The Writer's Room programme, realized in collaboration with Power to the Pixel, also starts here in the same days. The group begins developing their transmedia project and its members have special sessions with participants and cross media experts from BoostHBG.
