Writers Group – Sketchy Students

I decided to join the writers group for the production of Sketchy Students.  I thought that I would be able to contribute better in this group as I have had previous education in screenwriting.  All up there were five of us in this group.  It seems a bit overboard to have five people write four episodes that only last two to three minutes but it will be interesting to see how it goes.  The upside to having this many people on the writing team is that more ideas can be brainstormed in regards to the storyline and the gags.  But it might prove to be quite a strain to figure out how the roles are going to be divided when writing the scripts.  Most television productions usually consist of two to three writers for episodes up to an hour.  So maybe the best way to write the scripts for this series would be to rotate the roles between script writer and script editor.  It will be interesting for the learning process to see whether it can work effectively to have so many writers for a short sketch comedy.  Only the future will tell.
