If you’re an aspiring TV writer who wants to learn about how to build your writing career, our afternoon of TV panels is for you!

A fundraiser for The CineStory Foundation, the event is on Saturday, September 8th from 1 pm – 4:30 pm. The first panel, “BUILDING A SHOW FROM THE GROUND UP” (1 pm – 2:30 pm), is a frank discussion with experienced TV show creators and showrunners about the ins and outs of building a TV series from a bud of an idea into a fullblown series. Panelists include showrunners and creators Mark Fergus (THE EXPANSE), Javi Grillo-Marxuach (THE MIDDLEMAN), Sarah Shapiro (UnREAL), and Joey Slamon (I’M SORRY).

The next panel, “BUILDING YOUR CAREER FROM THE GROUND UP” (3 pm – 4:30 pm), takes a close look at how to go about putting together a career as a TV writer from the ground up. Panelists include TV writers Cindy Appel (SUPERIOR DONUTS), Greg Bonsignore (SIDE BY SIDE), Elle McLeland (TRANSPARENT), Sean Presant (INSTANT MOM), and Ian Williams (ELECTION NIGHT).
