TV and Screenwriting Fellowship and Staffing Programs

Fellowships and staffing programs can help you get your foot in the door with your first staff writing gig and/or get you connections to gatekeepers like execs, agents, managers and showrunners. Below is some information on these programs.

Classes to Help You Prepare Applications & Samples

Get an insider’s view on how to make your application stand out from a writer who’s gotten into a top fellowship or staffing program like Disney, Sundance, WIF/Black List, a working screenwriter or TV writer from a top show (e.g. A MAN ON THE INSIDE, SEVERANCE). In the Fellowship Bootcamp class, you’ll practice pitching yourself and answering those tricky interview questions. You’ll also learn how to brand yourself and get help with your resume, essays and pitches. We typically only offer that class February-May as most of the program deadlines are in the spring/early summer.

Our classes and certificate program have helped 197 students land fellowships and staffing programs including at Disney, Sundance, NBC, Warner Bros., Paramount, NBCUniversal.
