For those hoping to break into “the industry” by writing a spec screenplay, this program will be broken into two halves: The first 75 minutes will discuss standard and alternative screenplay structure and various approaches to writing dialogue. The second 75 minutes will explain how to safeguard your work, how to find agents/managers, and how to get your script read (and noticed) by industry professionals.
Eric Williams sold his first script (Columbo and the Curse of Sorcery Circus) to Peter Falk at Universal Studios in 1997. Since then, Williams has created the TV series Don’t Try This at Home for American Movie Classics, received “Best New Work” honors from the Writers Guild of America for his script Crystal Messiah and has had his work selected to participate in the prestigious Film Independent Producers Lab in Los Angeles. In addition to the fourteen original feature film scripts and adaptations that he has written, Williams is currently co-writing the script Legendary with director Alfredo DeVilla. Williams received his MFA from Columbia University and currently teaches at the Scripps College of Communication at Ohio University.
