Skins Writers Workshop

On Wednesday November 11th 2015, Native American writers participated in an intensive workshop sponsored by NBC,  ABC, CBS, BET, HBO and Sony Pictures.

Native writers received guidance on pitching their projects from BET development executive, Donna Michelle Anderson, and then pitched to NBC, CBS, ABC, managers, agents, and independent producers.

Film Independent joined the writers for dinner and discussed the feature film side of the entertainment industry and the state of independent filmmaking.

This was the opening event for the 9th Annual LA SKINS FEST – November 11th-15th, 2015. The participating writers did GREAT! Everyone was impressed with our pitches, ideas and overall professionalism.

Thanks to our sponsors for creating a new conduit for Native Americans.

The Skins Writers Program is an intensive initiative designed to offer new opportunities for Native American writers.
