meet, and social convention dictates that<br />

you’re more likely to spend more time<br />

spent stuck in a polite conversation with<br />

someone you know you’ll never work<br />

with rather than working the room to find<br />

the people you will. The answer for us is<br />

our organised Speed Networking.<br />

Advanced Mentoring and<br />

Script Labs<br />

At the festival we run a number of<br />

intensive ‘closed door’ labs with experts<br />

and writers in hyper focused fields.<br />

The Actors’ Table Read<br />

The actors’ table read is an opportunity<br />

for you to get your screenplay worked<br />

on by professional actors and a<br />

director. This has proven to be our most<br />

successful initiative to date with 99.8%<br />

positive feedback from the 200 people<br />

involved last year. If you submit a script<br />

to the process and you are selected you<br />

will attend a one hour session where the<br />

director and the actors will work on one<br />

sequence (between 3 and five pages) of<br />

your script. These are closed sessions<br />

and they run throughout all three days of<br />

the festival.<br />

Script Doctor drop in desk<br />

Get one-to-one script feedback on your screenplay from<br />

an experienced Script Doctor. Slots are now all taken<br />

but there is a drop-in desk during the festival next to<br />

registration. So if you want to just rock up with your script,<br />

get some feedback or ask for career advice, head over<br />

there and see one of the lovely Euroscript Doctors.<br />
