ABOUT THE WEBINAR

The television miniseries is a hot format right now and everyone in Hollywood wants to know how they can get in on this “new” trend. But the trend isn’t really that new. This webinar will give you the information about the current marketplace for miniseries and what tools, skill and material you will need to break into the business.

Understanding the buyer’s needs is what television is all about today. Each network has demographics they covet and the project you sell to them has to reach that demo and more. This webinar will review in detail how network executives evaluate and categorize projects like a potential miniseries.

Network and cable television is a hyper-competitive and expanding marketplace. This has made the competition for great material from screenwriters and book authors a bigger challenge than ever. If you are a writer looking to break into the miniseries marketplace, or producer, but not the first person the big agencies call with a hot script, then there are steps you can take to find the material you need that networks want, and this webinar will give you those strategies.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • How to find and choose a project the network wants
  • What format each network needs in a mini
