TV Episodic Screenwriting Camp – 2025

10AM-5PM

See what it’s like to develop a story in a TV Writer’s Room. This camp will take campers through the process of “breaking story” and developing an episodic series. Campers will work with expert screenwriters to learn how to collaborate with a team to build a long-form story, coming up with a concept for the show as a group, and then breaking into small teams to each write an episode. Campers will also learn about what a career in TV writing is like, how writers pitch a TV show to networks, and much more. By the end of camp, your Writers Room Team will have written a multi-episode show. At the end of camp Script to Screen Film Festival, a few campers will be chosen to “pitch” the show and share a synopsis of each episode.

• Screenplay formatting
• Screenwriting software
