From October 24 - 28, the Marriott and Renaissance Hotels at the Los Angeles Airport will be packed with over 4,000 writers, writer-directors, screenwriting teachers, production company executives, agents, managers, script analysts . . and you.
What can you look forward to this year?
How about an amazing line-up of guests including the legendary William Goldman (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Princess Bride), Oscar-winner Steven Zaillian (Schindler's List), Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman (Transformers), Michael Goldenberg (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix), Ted Elliott & Terry Rossio (the Pirates of the Caribbean films), Danny Cannon (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation), Bill Lawrence (Scrubs), Larry Karaszewski & Scott Alexander (1408, Man on the Moon), Scott Frank (The Lookout), novelist and TV scripter Robert Ward (Miami Vice), Tina Andrews (Why Do Fools Fall in Love?), and Stuart Beattie (30 Days of Night).
And that's just the guests of honor. Got a few brilliant ideas and polished pitches just itching to see the light of day? The Golden Pitch Tournament offers you the chance to pitch your ideas and stories to over 60 different producers, development executives, production companies, agents, and managers. This gives you the chance to pitch directly to a roomful of industry execs even if you don't have an agent yet. These are top industry names, each of whom has a studio deal and/or major motion pictures, television shows or Movies-of-the-Week to their credit, so make sure you bring your A-game.
Test your writing chops against up to 1,000 other writers in the CS Open writing tournament. Two days of writing challenges with big prizes on the line, including $5,000 cash, software from Movie Magic Screenwriter, and prodco consideration from the grand prize winner.
With all this at your fingertips, not to mention 300+ classes on screenwriting for all skill levels, networking parties, and more, you can't afford to miss Screenwriting Expo.
