Looking forward to h
earing everyone’s pitch for the five web series we’ll develop and make over the course of the studio. Afterwards you will all nominate your three favourites; the pool from which five ideas will be selected. You will then join one of five teams as we develop these concepts to script and then screen.
A reminder these first pitches are not assessed, but they do form the basis of the mini-bible due end Week 3 (regardless of whether yours is one of the five chosen for development).
See you Wednesday, 1030, 9.3.11!
The Brief
Web series from the 2016 MWF
When looking to build up our filmography (? – webography?) of web series, here’s one port of call, which is the award winners from the recent Melbourne Web Fest – and most particularly, for our purposes, the comedies. Read the list here:

Process for Applying for Extensions
Here is the link that explains the extension process, and where you can download the application form.
In most instances you will need to apply no later than one working day before the due date.
We’re unable to override this process (ie. grant extensions at our own discretion), so while you should also let your tutor know when to expect your submission, it’s vital you abide by the protocol.
