We think of loglines as pertaining to projects, scripts or shows. It's what we use to get in the room, and hopefully, stay there. But before anyone buys from you, they buy into you. So it isn't just about the logline of your show, it's about the logline of you.
Our stories—those things that make us unique, weird or different—are also what make us uniquely suited to a particular project, genre or idea. Rather than hiding your personal stories, learn how to use them to your advantage, crafting a narrative that makes your passions clear and earned.
In this part lecture, part workshop over Zoom, Nikki Levy, Head of Scripted Content at DreamWorks TV, will share how to position your talent and expertise using truth and vulnerability.
Panel begins at noon Pacific Time.
Space is limited so RSVP now. After signing up, you’ll receive information on how to access the Zoom panel.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at events@wgfoundation.org.
For anyone who was unable to RSVP for the panel, we will record and post them at a later date.
