2013 Skins Writers Lunch at Universal Pictures
On March 27 2013, the Skins Writers Group partnered with Universal Pictures. The world-renowned studio held an informational lunch for several Native American writers to offer more opportunities to our community. We met with a Vice President of Production at Universal Pictures and their Diversity Department. They discussed the process of writing, pitching and producing at the studio level. It was a great experience and we were greatly encouraged. Special thanks to Universal Pictures for their support.
