HIGH CONCEPT:
HOW TO CREATE, PITCH AND SELL TO HOLLYWOOD
Steve Kaire
Monday, July 12, 1999. Time: 6PM-8PM, Pacific Standard Time. (Hollywood Time)
What is high-concept? It means that if
you can't generate enough interest in your story in just a few sentences, it might be dead
in the water. Agents and producers want high-concept screenplays, especially from new
writers. They want to be able to say after they read your query letter, or hear your idea,
"That's a movie! I can sell this."
Remember, this is show BUSINESS. Not
show ART. High concept ideas are what you need to play the Hollywood game.
The instructor, Steve Kaire is a master
at creating high-concept ideas and screenplays that sell. He's set up seven of them at major
studios. Take his online class and find out how you can too.
**Remember, this is not a class to help
you write a screenplay. This class is designed to help you formalize and sell high concept
ideas.
While Steve is lecturing, he will schedule question and answer periods.
YOU WILL LEARN THE FOLLOWING:
+ What the requirements are for
high-concept ideas
+ What the advantages are
+ Brainstorming Techniques
+ How To Pitch Dramatically
+ How To Protect Your Ideas
+ Dealmaking- Money, Screen
Credit, Options, Rewrites
