ABOUT THE WEBINAR

Short attention spans and frequent commercials have changed when "act breaks" occur in network sitcoms. Gone are the days of the one break, two act episode. Premium cable series also present unique challenges. Understanding the deep structure of all formats is essential to writing a great spec or pilot.

By analyzing both a popular current network sitcom and a successful premium cable show, you'll delve into what producers need and how to get your spec to the highest level possible. You will examine specific episodes, their overall structure and the structure of their sequences and scenes. Screenwriter, Paul Chitlik, will refer to scripts of current and past shows, which you will read or view online before the beginning of the webinar so that all participants will have the same reference points. He will also show how the scripts breakdown using PowerPoint and other presentation methods.

Paul has written for network, premium cable, and syndicated sitcoms (including one in Spanish!), and will bring his practical experience to the webinar.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

  • The deep structure of all story construction
  • How each format fits into that construction
  • How scenes are structured
  • How A, B, and C stories give depth to episodes and characters
  • How to adapt a story from one format to another
  • How to set up and pay off
  • How to choose the format that best showcases your talent

WHO SHOULD LISTEN?

  • Novice writers who need to know how to analyze a show they want to write for
  • Emerging writers who may have begun a spec but are having trouble with the format
  • Veteran writers who need to switch from a traditional format to a more current format
  • Writers planning on writing a sitcom pilot or spec script
  • Development executives who want a deeper understanding of the form
  • Directors who want to enter sitcom directing
  • Writers making the transition from features or one-hour storytelling
  • Anyone who wants to expand their appreciation of sitcom writing.

Great gift!
Color: Light Blue
I bought these for teacher appreciation gifts and the recipients loved them! The light blue ones just add a pop of color and I’ve been told they keep their coffee warm ALL day. What a sweet treat for deserving educators. I plan on buying one for my desk!

Does the job, wish it had some safety features
Color: Black
Good value for the price, and it definitely keeps your coffee warm. I do wish it had a safety feature where it could turn off on its own, or a less sensitive on/off button. It goes on easily and gets very hot, so it can be dangerous with little kids.

FINALLY able to enjoy my morning coffee without reheating!!!!
Color: Black
Since this mug warmer arrived, I have finally been able to enjoy a relaxing cup of morning coffee. Value and quality are on point. This warmer keeps my coffee warm to the last drop. The cord is long enough to reach an outlet near the end table, easy and simple operation (tap on, tap to lower temp up to two times then final tap off). Auto shut off after 4 hours which I have not used yet as I always unplug my unit after each use, however it is nice to know that is an option. Just one suggestion, Using a mug lid with unit also helps keep the hot beverage at a consistant temp. I LOVE IT and wish I ordered one sooner.

Perfect
Color: Light Blue
For me this coffee warmer is perfect. The disk sides are just right. High enough for a good fit, but not so high you risk sloshing your beverage. The color (blue) is exactly as displayed. Works great and a very good price.

Works only moderately well to keep coffee hot
Color: Light Blue
Not quite what I expected. Although the base heats up as described, it does not keep my coffee as warm as I would expect at the highest temperature.
