- "Backstory with Terry McFadden" is an interview series where with established Writers/Producers/Comedians and TV Show Creators not only inform viewers about their career but tell stories that otherwise we would not hear.
- The webinar covers all of the components that are necessary in a working TV pitch document such as the concept page, premise, personal statement, series unanswerable question, character bios, pilot synopsis, additional episode loglines, the story engine, season arc and a summarizing wrap. However, more importantly and central to this presentation would be Terry's expounding on of how to make your TV Pitch Bible not only a phenomenal reference document proving you have a series here, but just how it is fresh, timely and most of all, how it is "You". We will go through the elements and methodology of how to do this in a way that is unique and in the writer's own voice; the vision and the slant that comes from the essence of the writer, their world, how they see it and conveying that on the page. The TV Series Pitch Bible is the most important document is getting you show made or sold because it proves not only that you have a great, new, and fresh show but that it can go several seasons, and, that you, as a show creator and writer know what you are doing to help make this happen. We are talking about a document that describes and articulates precisely what your show is. A conceptual specific outline: an in depth look at the world of the show, the characters, what happens there--how and why. And, it demonstrates that your TV Series is a cool and new turn on the genre--the fresh spin all producers look for. The TV Series Pitch Bible is the proof that your show is unique, original, timely and can easily go several seasons. The goal of this course is to jumpstart you into building your own kickass 7 to 10-page written TV series pitch bible for your show or idea in hand and on file. You will learn how to put "You" into your TV series pitch bible by not only conveying your own unique voice on the page but by actually injecting your take and POV on to your show premise from your life experiences and weaving this into your document in story form. You will learn how to immediately be suggesting and building the story engine on every page through the interweaving of relationships, the lines of repeatable conflicts and other tools thus giving readers (producers) an idea of what the episodes could be long before we even get to the pilot synopsis. You will be building from the ground up. Terry will be using one of his own TV show ideas and the pitch bible he created as the model. The advantage with this methodology is that students will now see and learn from the process, instead of just deconstructing shows that are already proven winners. Recordings will also be available as to review and go over any sticking points.
