High-end TV

This four day course run over two weekends, both online and in person delivered from my 300 year old cottage. It is always intensive, fun and packed with information.

It is important to me to convey how essential this job is to ensure the continued high standard of series television drama production in this country. Focusing on the control and development of high-end television (HETV) series and serial narratives, this course has proven to be successful in bringing a fresh and consistent flow of new and burgeoning script development talent entering at ground level, direct into the television Industry.

I will break down my approach to the job of script editing, discuss the role in the industry as a whole and drill down into the processes necessary to be great at, in order to be a strong script editor. We will analyse treatments, script reports and TV pilots as well as work directly with a professional writer and enjoy an informative Q and A with a key industry player.

Script Advice with Yvonne Grace

Over four days and two consecutive weekends, both online and in person, the course analyses and discusses the role of the script editor within the high-end drama production process; using real examples from dramas I have produced and those that are currently transmitting. Using real commissioned examples of television scripts and treatments supplied by me and my contacts in the industry, I will show how to take a writer’s creative ideas in treatment form and translate them into script form.
