TV Pilot Lab (Comedy)

Oct 15 to Dec 10 — Sundays, 10am – 1pm (PDT)

Instructor: Lindsay Gelfand

You need at least one exceptional original pilot to break into the business.

The TV Comedy Pilot Lab is a 6-week intensive course that is run like a professional writers’ room. It requires 2 weeks of prep before class begins.

Using Script Anatomy tools, you will develop, outline and write your TV comedy pilot script at a pace expected in the TV industry.

All class members are required to devote time to homework, writing and reading other classmates’ work to provide feedback. They are expected to actively participate in the development and story breaking process each week. In a professional writers’ room, you must participate if you want to keep your job! Working this muscle will benefit you.

This is an advanced class that prepares you for your first job writing for TV. As our alumni attest, the experience is invaluable.

Required: Televisionary or equivalent experience.

Testimonial: “Lindsay Gelfand gives some of the best, most actionable notes I’ve ever received. She is sharp and funny and not only knows her stuff, but provides feedback in such a way you’re inspired to rewrite. You heard me—inspired. To rewrite. It’s bonkers! I took Lindsay’s class because I’d been stuck on a script for more than a year. With Lindsay’s guidance, I now have an outline I love for a pilot I can’t wait to write. (And rewrite.) Lindsay is a terrific teacher. You should take her classes.” — Kari Barlas
