How Stories Work with Jay Sherer
TV & Film
What is it like to talk to a studio about your screenplay? On today’s podcast, my co-writer Nathan Scheck and I had a chance to sit down with the new, but quickly-growing City Lights Studio to talk about our latest feature script: The Harlequin. On this show you’ll get to hear:
I’m friends with Seth, one of the founders of City Lights Studio, so this conversation is extremely friendly. Meaning, if you were to meet with a studio to discuss your script, it might not be this friendly. But my hope is that listening to their feedback on our script will give you some insight into how to polish your screenplays and get them made.
If you’re interested in reading our feature script, The Harlequin, or our short, No Vacancy, please consider becoming a supporter of How Stories Work on Patreon or shoot me an email and let me know you’re interested in reading it.
