Inside The Writers’ Room
Inside The Writers’ Room
The writers’ room is where some of the most compelling TV stories are born - a collaborative space where writers come together to shape characters, plot twists and entire series. While long established in the US, the writers’ room model is becoming increasingly popular in the UK, offering exciting new opportunities for screen creatives.
In this session, you’ll discover what a writers’ room is, how it operates and what happens before during and after the process. We will explore the roles within the room, how they vary by genre, broadcaster and stage of development and the group dynamics that drive collaborative storytelling. The discussion will also cover why writers’ rooms are an ideal training ground for climbing the writing and producing ladder and what it takes to thrive in one.
