[How to: TV] The Demo script

OK, Phase 1 probably continues with these steps:

Write the quintessential scene and a 1 pager description (which includes title, metaphor, 4 main elements and commentary on the quintessential scene). You might want to write this up before taking the idea to your first audience.

Choose an idea to turn into a script (some people advise that you don't write the pilot first).
Brainstorm the act breaks.
Write a script (as a group) in 48 hours.

Refine the quintessential scene and a 1 pager description (which includes title, metaphor, 4 main elements and commentary on the quintessential scene).

Extra thoughts:
Have actors involved as writers.
Keep the number of writers small and trusted. If someone doesn’t ‘get’ how to write the idea, they don’t belong on the team. No matter how experienced they are.
