A FINAL WORD...<br />

Holy cow! You can see there is a<br />

TON of stuff to do to get the most<br />

from the festival. It’s going to be<br />

an intense three days, so plan for<br />

the marathon.<br />

Being prepared is the best way to<br />

get the most from the festival, so<br />

get working on your pitches now.<br />

At any given time there are five<br />

sessions running along with other<br />

events like the PitchFest, Labs,<br />

Actor’s Table read etc., so there is<br />

a LOT happening. We do film many<br />

sessions and those will be marked<br />

in the schedule.<br />

Above all, remember to relax<br />

and have fun. Talent is great, but<br />

relationships get you hired. Making<br />

friends is often more valuable than<br />

delivering killer pitches or getting<br />

business cards from heavy hitters.<br />

Screenwriting is a lifelong pursuit<br />

and a creative marathon, not a 100<br />

yard dash.<br />

Good luck and I look forward to<br />

seeing you there!<br />

So what next?<br />

You will see at the end of this book we have more<br />

amazing seminars coming up. But in the meantime,<br />

jump into LSFConnect and look out for the sessions<br />

we filmed coming online in the coming weeks and<br />

months.<br />
