Workshops

"Does It Have Legs?" – A Concept Clinic

You have a concept. Maybe a pilot. Maybe just an idea you can't stop thinking about. This workshop is a diagnostic: we test whether your story has sustainable narrative potential, identify structural strengths and weaknesses, and map the path from concept to development-ready project.

For: Writers, creators, development teams
Format: 1.5 hours or half-day

"Development Hell"

Why do good ideas get stuck? Projects circle for years without moving forward. This workshop diagnoses the cause: structural problems, character system failures, unclear format fit, or development process issues. Then we fix them.

For: Writers, producers, development teams
Format: 1.5 hours or half-day

"How to Train Your AI"

AI tools are everywhere. Craft is not. This workshop teaches how to integrate AI into your creative and production workflow while keeping the storytelling at the center. Not a tech tutorial. A methodology for using new tools without losing what makes your work yours.

For: Writers, creators, producers, studios
Format: 1.5 hours or half-day

"Dramaturgy for Producers"

This workshop gives producers the dramaturgical vocabulary and frameworks to evaluate scripts, give useful notes, and organize the writing process. Practical, not academic.

For: Producers, production companies
Format: Tailored to your company needs or on demand
