MORE WHITE SPACE! How to Pare Down Your Prose and Get Your Scripts Noticed

Event Date: Saturday, July 18, 2015 || Speaker: Bill Lundy  || Check-in: 12:30 pm ||

Producers, development execs, agents and managers are busy people, reading literally dozens of scripts per week. Needless to say, the less they have to read in a particular script, the better. But one of the most common mistakes emerging writers make is OVERWRITING, leading to their scripts getting ignored or skimmed and tossed into the “Pass” pile. In this class, you’ll learn how to cut down your prose and put exactly what you need on the page to get your story across – leaving lots of white space, which makes those people VERY happy!
