We at the WGF may have hit a pause on our live events, but thanks to technology, we’re aiming to provide more access to advice and knowledge from film and TV writers while we’re all social distancing. Over the last few months, we’ve been hosting free Zoom panels about craft and all things relevant to writers.

For this session, we learn about the role of the Staff Writer in a TV drama writers room. Our panel of writers will share how they got the job, their experiences working in their respective rooms, and how they approach building a career writing for TV.

Panelists:

• Sarah Berry - Staff Writer, Hightown

• Daniel K. Hoh - Staff Writer, Station 19

• Marcelena Campos Mayhorn - Staff Writer, Selena: The Series

• Cameron Moore - Story Editor, All-American

Moderated by WGF VP of Programming Larry Andries (How To Get Away With Murder, Godfather of Harlem)

Panel starts at 5pm 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 it at a later date.
