Advisor Tiles
Maria Judice is offering 60-minute, one-on-one sessions to discuss your questions about the art and craft of screenwriting and to provide feedback on a short screenplay (under 30 pages), or the first act (under 30 pages) of your feature length screenplay. She can also offer general career guidance on writing and directing.
FAQs
- If you have general questions you’d like insight on such as career guidance, a 30-minute session should be right for you.
- If you’d like to have your work reviewed and receive feedback, you’ll want to schedule a 60-minute session for detailed feedback during your session.
Each Advisor may provide different services. Advisors will review projects in advance to provide feedback during 60-minute sessions (ex: short film, screenplay, pitch deck review, etc.). Advanced project feedback is not available during our 30-minute sessions. 30-minute sessions do allow for conversation around works-in-progress or practice pitches, but Advisors do not review work in advance.
