Writing is rewriting… and rewriting, and rewriting. Every writer is familiar with this adage, but when you have finished the first draft of your TV pilot (congratulations!), it can be daunting to plunge into the inevitable second draft. Stage 32 is here to provide expert guidance and mentorship while you rewrite your TV pilot and get it market ready!

Maybe you know some things in your pilot aren’t working but you are just not sure where the problems lie, or how to fix them. Maybe you have received notes you don’t quite understand or aren’t sure you agree with, making them hard to address. Maybe you have submitted your pilot to contests and haven’t moved past the quarter or semi-finals or pitched and pitched only to get script requests but no development offers. This is not the time to give up - it’s time to double down, to dive into your second (or third, or fourth…) draft with the guidance of a top development executive and literary manager.

Writing may seem like a solitary occupation, but all writers need guidance. Especially TV writers. TV writers work in rooms, work with showrunners, producers, managers and executives giving them feedback. They belong to writers’ groups. If you don’t have those support systems guiding you through your rewrite (or even if you do and need a fresh perspective), this lab is for you. Let’s dive in together!

In this exclusive Stage 32 6-part screenwriting lab, you will rewrite your existing TV pilot script under the guidance of an industry leader to guarantee your next draft is not only an improvement of your work, but ready to go to market. Guiding you through the rewriting process for your pilot is Anna Henry. Anna is a producer and development executive who has set up projects at AMC, Amazon Prime, Starz, HBO, Sony, Fox, EOne, ITV America, and OddLot Entertainment, among others. She’s worked at CBS, ABC, Nickelodeon, and multiple production companies, as well as in management at Andrea Simon Entertainment where she worked with writers. Anna is also an instructor for Netflix & Stage 32 Creating Content for a Global Marketplace Program.

Over 6 interactive sessions, you will find out the most effective strategies to rewrite on a large scale, revise scene-by-scene and polish the details of your script till it shines. You will receive valuable worksheets and checklists that help you keep track of the steps you need to take to improve your script. Through virtual classroom sessions and one-on-one sessions with Anna, you will receive personalized feedback to improve your script.

PLUS! You’ll receive exclusive handouts to help in your rewriting process. Downloads include:

• Story grid worksheet
• Character description elements
• Scene elements worksheet
• Sample scenes analysis
• Polish “to-do” checklist

If you’re looking to punch up and rewrite your pilot script and turn script problems into storytelling opportunities, this lab is for you!

**Please send your current pilot script to edu@stage32.com immediately after signing up for the course so you can receive personalized feedback from Anna.**

Praise For Anna's Previous Stage 32 Teaching:

"Anna's webinar was fantastic. I am writing my first one hour drama pilot so this webinar was packed with the exact information that I will be immediately putting to use in my rewrite. The slides were clear, concise and informative. The speaker was excellent at conveying the information I needed." -Bobby C.

"It was really great information. Anna was a terrific host, very knowledgeable and shared a lot of information and tips." -Marla H.

"This was by far the best webinar on pitch documents that I have experienced. I've seen others where they give certain advice that she warned not to do!" - Tiffany C.

"So informative on the structure of a pitch. What's needed and how to go about dealing with the things that will come up during a verbal pitch or simply in the relationship between those giving a pitch and those receiving one. Well organized Anna, thank you!" - Julia L.
