The Vomit Draft - Ep1 - Pitching Ideas
Manage episode 312011242 series 3213661
The first episode of The Vomit Draft podcast has Helen, Steve and Lee introduce each other, describe what the podcast is about and why they're doing it, i.e. to develop a TV series from idea to screenplay. It then has each of them pitch two ideas to each other for a TV show. What then follows is discussion, debate and development of those pitches so that they can shortlist two ideas to take through to next week. You will hear them pick at the ideas trying to find the essence of each one and marrying that with what they understand the industry is currently looking for. They discuss different formats (CDS, mini-series, returnable etc.), the platforms and channels that might be suited to the shows (streaming, broadcast [BBC, Ch4, Sky etc.]), budget considerations and a lot more whilst they try to stay on subject and not insult each other too much! Dive in and experience what it is like to develop a show and be in a writer's room.
Next week they will examine their shortlist in more depth, understand what themes they want to explore, start to build characters and really get to grips with what their personal connection is to the concept.
