Pilots & Pitching for Writerly Queers with Tilly Bridges

  • Madilyn Clark Studios, Studio D 10852 Burbank Boulevard Los Angeles, CA, 91601 United States (map)

Are you stymied about what makes a good pilot script for a television show? Are you terrified of pitching projects, because we writers just want to sit in a dark coffee cave to write our stories in peace? Then you’re in luck, because I'm here to help! With experience in television, animation, film, comics, podcasts, games, and more, we’ll discuss what executives and producers are looking for, and how to deliver those things on a professional level. Because we need more queer creators to get our projects made! Max enrollment of ten super fab trans/nonbinary/gnc/queer folks!

Their award-winning short film, Long Away, is presently playing film festivals around the world.
