WRITING MENTORSHIPS

Mentorships are a crucial part of both Writing Programs. 

SUMMER PROGRAM
Once the four weeks have concluded, students are given the opportunity to apply for a mentorship with an industry professional. Students submit a project proposal and, if accepted, meet with their mentors (or talk by phone) once a month for five months, with the goal of developing a mainstream feature script or TV spec script. 

Our volunteer corps of mentors is made up of writers and other professionals with a solid knowledge of the craft and the business of screenwriting. Many of them are Act One instructors and alumni.
