GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER

Planning to use your short film as a stepping stone to the feature film or tv pilot version? Get Your Act Together will empower you with the subtle but crucial difference in act structures between feature film, tv comedies and tv dramas. That way you can keep your bigger project in mind while you develop the short film version. If you're someone who likes to reverse-engineer your project, start with the bigger script first, and I'll help you pull out the perfect short film version that you can produce. (Value: $497)
