Screenwriting Symposium Events
Seminar   Art of the 5-Minute Pitch
Seminar Description: In This Seminar you will learn how to relax as you make that first pitch or fine-tune the pitches you've already practiced.

Seminar   Group Therapy
Seminar Description: Sometimes, the wonderful story in your head doesnt quite make it to the page. It happens to all writers. You just don't want to find out that it's happened to you when you hear back from that agent or producer you were trying so hard to impress with your latest script.
Finding the right writers group can be the cure for the common cold read. The best writers groups will reinforce where your story went right, as well as stress those areas that might not have worked as well as you had hoped.
In this Seminar Steve will show you how to find or start your own writers group. You'll also learn how to give and take criticism without making it personal. You'll leave with Steve's tips on knowing how to give your writing the extra edge that a writers group can provide.
