The first 15 pages of a script do a lot of heavy lifting. They introduce character, establish tone, create momentum, and decide whether a reader keeps turning pages.

In this screenwriting workshop with , writers will focus on building stronger openings for TV dramas, comedies, and feature scripts through close workshop discussion and craft-based feedback.

Participants will submit pages in advance, read one another’s work, and spend the week digging into what opening pages are actually communicating to a reader.

If your script has been sitting in “almost there” territory, join Spiro so he can help you to move it forward.
