Showrunning 101: Everything You Need To Know From A Showrunner Who Has Worked With ABC, NBC, FOX and The CW

Learn the fundamentals of television series showrunning from a showrunner/writer/director who has worked on projects for ABC, NBC, FOX and The CW! 

You’ve heard the term “showrunner.” You know the showrunner is the most essential and complex role when making a television show. But what does a showrunner actually do?

A television showrunner is like a writer/director/producer all rolled into one. All creative decisions for the show go through them. It’s exciting, exhilarating and creatively fulfilling in a deep, meaningful way - a job every television writer dreams of. It’s also frustrating, exhausting and totally overwhelming, especially if you’ve never done it before. Working as a first time showrunner is often a trial by fire - you’re thrown into the mix and have to figure out the job as you go.

That’s why Stage 32 created this comprehensive exclusive webinar, now available immediately on-demand, to teach you all you need to know about the process and responsibilities of showrunning - what it entails from the creative, business, and logistical perspectives!

This webinar will take you behind the scenes with veteran showrunner/writer/director Todd Slavkin, who will guide you through the step-by-step creative and practical process of being a showrunner, from getting your greenlight to production through the final delivery of your show, and all the essential steps in between. Todd will also share many of his personal anecdotes along the way.

With over 35 years of experience in both television and film, Todd has been the showrunner on SMALLVILLE, SHADOWHUNTERS, and most recently THE MYSTERIOUS BENEDICT SOCIETY. Todd has written pilots for ABC, NBC, FOX and The CW and has a wealth of knowledge to share with you on everything a showrunner does to make a TV series. 

This webinar is a must for any person who dreams of running their own TV show, who wants to work for a showrunner on a series or simply wants to know what the job of a showrunner really entails. 

PLUS! Todd will provide you with exclude downloads to help on your showrunning journey! Downloads include:
