Project Development

On selected Mondays, from 6.15pm - 9.30pm, our tutors are on hand to help you with your writing.

Develop your script from initial idea to final draft. Euroscript is committed to helping you make your work the best it can possibly be - whether feature-film, short, sitcom, TV drama or series.

Whatever stage you’re at, from an idea that hasn’t even been put onto paper yet, to a draft of a script, bring your work along and receive constructive criticism to help you develop it further. It works like this: we allocate one tutor to up to six writers. On the Thursday before the Monday evening you submit your work to be circulated to the other writers and our tutor. You may circulate:

• up to four pages of a treatment typed in single line spacing; or
• up to 30pp of your screenplay (if it isn’t the first 30pp please submit a brief summary, no longer than one page);
• a list of questions you would like the group to think about (optional).

You will receive feedback from the other writers and tutor; and together we’ll create a development plan for you, agree how frequently you want to come, and give you attainable goals for each step and deadlines to help focus your work. You will also be expected to give feedback on the other writers’ projects, so please ensure you allow time for reading on the weekend before. If you have never given feedback on work before, you will find this sharpens your script reading and editing skills and improves your own writing. Guidance on how to give feedback will be given to you by the tutor on the evening.
