| | | Description: | Enter now for the chance to hear your script read LIVE and receive feedback from the writer of the upcoming "Jigsaw" film( of "Saw" franchise,) Pete Goldfinger. Along with writing in the horror genre, Pete has written in anime and comedy as well... a man of many talents with much "Insider" knowledge to pass on....
Every script submitted (fee is $25) is in the running to be one of 2 scripts chosen to be read in front of our audience and this month's Industry Insider, in a West Hollywood Theatre on Monday, October 30th, 2017 at 7.30pm. It's our Halloween Eve special! (Costumes encouraged!)
Our event will also be Live Streamed. So if a writer is selected from outside LA they will be able to watch online and receive feedback live from the Insider, the audience, and the online viewers - as if they are sitting in the theatre.
Whether you enter or not, join us, or tune in to watch the readings, interact with our Insider, contribute feedback and gain valuable insights into the feedback and re-write process.
This series is run by writers to help other writers improve their craft. Hearing a script read live is a vital part of the creative/re-write process, so is getting useful notes from someone in the business, especially if you don't live in Los Angeles. This is a unique opportunity...submit your script now!
