WHERE AND WHEN

Entering the contest is the only way to get the chance to attend CineStory’s 2025 TV retreat on May 2 – 6, 2025 in Idyllwild, CA. Retreat attendees receive three 90-minute one-on-one sessions with CineStory mentors, participate in mentor-led panels and writing exercises, socialize with other attendees and mentors, and attend other special events. In addition, attendees participate in a mock drama and a mock comedy writers’ room so they can experience what it is like inside an actual TV writers’ room.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Here’s what attendees had to say about our TV retreat:

“I’ve done film school, I’ve done film festivals and networking events, but CineStory is simply the best way I’ve ever found to meet other film and TV writers. The amount of talent, passion, and industry knowledge among the writers and mentors is phenomenal. It’s an intense bonding experience that will help you grow your craft by leaps and bounds.” – Alex Reed, 2023 TV Retreat

“CineStory is the rarest of experiences: a safe, joyful, collaborative space to learn from working writers and other industry mentors, bond with your peers, and level up your work. I came away from the weekend inspired, reinvigorated, and far more knowledgeable about the craft and business of screenwriting. And I had a blast!” – Rebecca Miller, 2023 TV Retreat
