The Film Producing Workshop
Presented by Judith Merians
Saturday, September 13, 2008
Le Pierre du Marais

Do you want to produce the script you wrote or the literary property you optioned, start a production company so you can develop projects, or talk to producers intelligently?

Get the inside information that can make you more successful as a writer, director, producer, or hyphenate filmmaker. In the Film Producing Workshop you will learn what it means to be a producer, what skills you need, who you do business with, how you analyze the marketplace and the buyers, how to talk to money, distributors, and producers and think like they do. Whatever your role in making films, there is much to be learned that will influence the script you write, the producers you work with, the companies you target, the projects you select, and the deals you make.

This workshop is led by Judith Merians, who has been an entertainment lawyer and studio executive, literary agent, and film school professor in Los Angeles for over 25 years. In her years in Hollywood Judith has been involved in hundreds of films and has sat on all sides of the table - development, production, financing, completion bonds, distribution, and marketing.

Join us for this 3-hour workshop session sponsored by Adrian Leeds and Parler Paris.
