About this Event
As a writer in the business, the number one thing you will hear is people talking about "voice." What does it mean when an executive or manager says a writer has a "great voice"? What does having a "voice" mean, and how do you find yours? Why is it important? And finally, how do you sell your "voice" as a writer? If you have ever had any of these questions, this workshop is for you! With years of experience working on both the studio and creative sides of the business, Michelle Hsu will demystify and break down what "writer's voice" means, and help you discover yours. This one hour workshop will be followed by a 30 min Q&A. Don't miss out on this opportunity to get all your questions answered by an industry professional!
