On Set Series ~ The Neighborhood

November 13, 2018

Event Date: Tuesday, December 18, 2018 || Check-in: 3:30 pm ||

On Set Series provides you with an opportunity to see live studio tapings of current sitcom shows. As a writer, this experience will be both educational and beneficial to your own writing. If you are a TV, Feature and/or a New Media writer, you will learn from those who are actually working on a live show by experiencing what goes on behind the scenes with the writing, acting, directing and staging. You will be listening and learning. This is an experience, as writer, you should not miss!

You will attend as an observer only; as part of the audience. You will not be able to interact with those on the set as they are working, so take a notepad and pen and take plenty of notes.

Observe how the director directs each of the scenes. Note the actors and how they act out the written word? Listen to the audience responses, did they come at the right time, etc.? Is there something that did not work with the audience? If so, how did the director/producer/writer make the change, what did they do? Who made the change? There are plenty more ways to observe, learn and then apply what you have seen to your own writing projects.

These events are free and exclusively for SWN’s annual members. You must RSVP and follow the Studio rules and information listed below.

**Please note that each guest and/or attendee needs to REGISTER individually.

Sometimes, you just want to be entertained. The Tiffany Network knows this, and they’ve got just the man for the job. CBS has ordered the Welcome to the Neighborhood TV show, starring Cedric The Entertainer. The actor and comedian, who can also be seen in Tracy Morgan’s new TBS comedy, The Last OG, will also executive produce with writer Jim Reynolds, late of the cancelled TV series 9JKL. A CBS multi-camera sitcom, Welcome to the Neighborhood stars Josh Lawson as “the nicest guy in the Midwest.” He and his family move to a tough Los Angeles neighborhood, right next door to Cedric’s character, Calvin. The comedy also stars Sheaun McKinney, Tichina Arnold, Dreama Walker, Marcel Spears, and Hank Greenspan.
