TALL STORY SCRIPT CALLOUT (AUGUST)

As part of Tall Story Pictures’ desire to support diversity & inclusion and deliver long-term, sustainable change to our industry, we are announcing our next script callout; this time to support unagented Middle Eastern North African (MENA) writers.

We will read and provide written and verbal feedback on your 60 minute TV script in one-to-one sessions with a member of the TSP editorial team. We ask that the script has a standard industry format. An extract from Redemption, created and written by Sean Cook is above and shows the format (other examples can be found online). The free software to write your scripts is available at Celtx. We will then host a hangout Q&A with the TSP team to provide advice on the TV industry and connect you with the other callout writers.  

The script window will open on Monday 1st August at 9am and close when we have received 16 eligible scripts. Due to the small nature of the TSP editorial team, the callout is capped to a maximum of 16 scripts in total. Please submit your name, social media handle, a log line, the genre and script in a PDF format to scripts@tallstorypictures.co.uk.   

We will only accept hour long TV scripts

We want to make this process accessible to everyone so please do let us know if you have any access requirements in your submission email. 

We’re planning further callouts this year and we’ll continue to focus on under-represented voices so please keep watching our feeds for new dates and further announcements.

This is an opportunity for industry feedback on your scripts, advising on next steps. Please note that this is not a competition or a mentoring scheme.

We will give feedback within 4 weeks of receipt. 

We’re looking forward to reading your work.
