FADE IN:

THE WRITER'S ZOOM

A screenwriting workshop, over Zoom, for people who'd rather finish the draft than keep talking about finishing the draft.

INT. ZOOM ROOM — CONTINUOUS

Twelve writers. One gallery view. Six weeks to get the pages right.

You bring an idea, a stalled outline, or a draft you're too close to see clearly anymore. We put it up on the wall — metaphorically, it's Zoom — and spend the next six weeks taking it apart and building it back better. Structure, technique, and the kind of notes that actually tell you what to fix.

HOW THE ROOM WORKS

Same room. Same writers. Every week.


4.
THE THREE ROOMS

Pick the stage your script is actually at — not the one you wish it were at.

Named the way script pages get named when a script is revised: white, blue, pink. Outline, draft, rewrite. Start wherever your project actually lives.

WHITE PAGES

Feature Outline

The blank page, tamed.

Build a workable outline from scratch — structure, stakes, and the shape of the whole movie before you commit to a single scene. You'll leave with an outline you can actually write from.

Good for: an idea, a logline, three loose acts and a prayer.

6 weeks$60012 seats
BLUE PAGES

Feature Draft

First pass, full script.

Turn your outline — or your nerve — into an actual draft. Weekly pages, weekly feedback, six weeks of forward motion that doesn't stop at the good ideas stage.

Good for: writers who are finally ready to write the thing.

6 weeks$60012 seats
PINK PAGES

Feature Rewrite

Notes, diagnosed and fixed.

Bring a completed draft and take it apart on purpose: what's working, what's quietly not, and how to rewrite it without burning the whole thing down and starting over.

Good for: a finished script that needs a second, smarter pass.

WRITER'S NOTE

Who's running this room

Brandy Finmark has spent eleven years selling scripts, staffing on shows, and learning — mostly the hard way — what actually gets a draft from "pretty good" to "getting sold." Brandy is a WGA screenwriter and TV writer, and has spent the last eight years teaching the craft to writers who now have reps, sales, and contest placements of their own.

This isn't theory borrowed from a screenwriting book. It's what's worked, what hasn't, and what a room full of honest notes can do for a script that's stuck.

TEACHING
8 years teaching screenwriting — students now repped, sold, and placing in top contests

TABLE READ — QUESTIONS

Frequently asked, mostly by people stalling on page one

Q: Do I need a finished script to join?
Depends on the room. Outline: no script needed, just an idea you can't stop thinking about. Draft: an outline helps, or at least strong opinions. Rewrite: yes — bring the finished draft. That's the whole point.
Q: What if I miss a week?
Life happens — and so does the room, with or without you. We'll fill you in, but the schedule doesn't pause for stragglers, so try not to make a habit of it.
Q: Is this only for feature scripts?
For now, yes. All three rooms are built around features. If enough of you ask nicely, a pilot room might happen.
Q: How much am I giving notes vs. getting notes?
Both, every week. You'll read pages, give notes, and take notes — that's the room. Everyone contributes, everyone benefits, nobody just lurks.
Q: Why only 12 seats?
Because a writers' room with forty people in it is just a webinar. Twelve is small enough that everyone gets real time on their pages.

CUT TO:

Reserve your seat

Twelve seats per room, and they tend to go before the six weeks even start. Tell us which room fits your script, and we'll follow up with the current schedule and how to pay.
