With the global television business continuing to expand the demand for new and exciting shows from fresh voices has never been higher!

With companies demanding more new content than ever before and spending billions in the search for shows that will keep audiences hooked, writers and creatives need to know how to show decision makers that their show has what it takes to impress their audiences. But with so much new content being developed to such a high quality, what do executives need to know about your show to demonstrate how it will stand out among the thousands that get submitted every year? What can you, the writer and creator, do to make your project the most appealing to executives and buyers?

Praise For Ewan

“ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Ewan delivered more in 20 minutes than other presenters do in an hour, and it NEVER felt rushed and he was always easily understandable. I cannot wait to get the handouts!” --Bob S.

“Ewan’s presentation was excellent! I learned so much from him and now feel 100% confident in creating a pitch deck. He is truly an expert.” --Margaret M.

"Very good, very knowledgeable and very organized. Great presentation and webinar. I walked away with lots of ideas about polishing my pitch decks to make sure they stand out." --James B.

"I've taken many years of webinars, gone to many conferences, and taken many courses on feature script writing. I've won a Grand Prize in a major festival for a screenplay. And I'm old enough to be an honest critic. Ewan Dunbar's webinar was one of the best I have ever taken! Organized, filled with useful information, he sounded like he really cared about helping the audience be better at what they want to do, and wasn't making an obvious pitch for himself as a consultant --although I'd call on him anytime." --Roberta P.
