003 Advanced Mentoring Script Lab: Big Ideas, Big Stories and Commercial Film and TV with Bob Schultz

Sharpen your commercial film and TV projects, gain clear, practical guidance, and leave with stronger stories, smarter market awareness, and concrete next steps for their careers.

With 20 years of experience writing, producing, loglining, pitching, advising, and mentoring, Bob Schultz will give your logline and pitch more than a polish. It’s time for a deep clean. Get all you need ship shape to entice and excite executives to get that script request.

ONLY SIX SPACES AVAILABLE

Led by veteran screenwriting teacher Bob Schulz, the lab centers on commercial screenwriting: movies and television series built for broad audience appeal.

The session blends the best of a small writers’ room with personalized mentorship. Participants form a temporary but cohesive writers group, learning from one another’s questions, challenges, and breakthroughs, while still receiving targeted, practical guidance on their own projects.

Writers will workshop material in progress,features, TV pilots, shorts, with an emphasis on:

  • Crafting concepts that connect with large audiences

  • Strengthening story engines, characters, and structure

  • Understanding the commercial marketplace for film and television

  • Clarifying personal creative goals and next career steps

With only six writers in the room, each participant gets meaningful one-on-one attention as well as group feedback that sharpens perspective and sparks new ideas. The result is a collaborative, generous, and rigorous environment where writers leave with clearer projects, concrete next actions, and a stronger sense of how their work fits into the professional screenwriting landscape.

APPLICATIONS OPEN: Monday 8th February

DEADLINE: Monday 8th March
