ABOUT THE WEBINAR

The fashion in TV heroes now is dark and complicated. And that's fantastic for creators! Sometimes, the lead character is actually an anti-hero! And TV story is getting bigger - just more story for an ever hungrier audience. This webinar's speaker (Peter Russell) recently did a consult where the producer gave the writer a shocking note on his pilot: 'can you make it longer?' Believe me, that's never been a note Peter has gotten before in television. And it's fantastic news for story creators. This medium is thriving. And freer than ever before. Now, TV's always been a closed off, hard to enter system. It still is, of course, but it's as open right now as it's ever been, because there are so many new venues for TV stories, and the way an audience watches has changed, too!

So - how do you write a great pilot in this market where cats don't get saved, the hero is ambiguous, and the humor is black? Peter Russell (UCLA's Teacher of the Year, & Pepperdine University's Seaver School's TV Pilot Professor) shows you how and works to quickly shape YOUR pilot characters and ideas in this webinar. And he brings his legendary inspiring and insightful teaching spirit here that will leave you energize and super-excited to tackled your project. Bring your pilot idea and Peter will help you improve it during the webinar. You'll learn how to create the 'permanent dilemma' at the heart of all great TV story, and how the kind of 'dilemma' that TV audiences love to watch has changed in the last five years. Peter and his partner have 'story-doctored' in Hollywood for the last 15 years (their latest project is for Brian Grazer's PELE, slated for release in spring of 2015.)

Using inspiring scenes from TRUE DETECTIVE, ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK, and the ever-darkening storyline of THE GOOD WIFE, Peter shows you how the greatest story creators exploit this new freedom -- even on network TV (which by the way, still pays way better than cable.) Peter also charts one of the biggest changes in TV -- the rise of the anti-hero, in stories like the brilliant BREAKING BAD. Peter shows you the suspense devices that Vince Gilligan employs to keep the BREAKING BAD audience on the edge of their seats.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

  • How to create the single most important part of your show: fabulous, original characters
  • Why your pilot needs an 'permanent dilemma' at its very center.
  • What your show's 'hook' must be (it's different from five years ago)
  • How the main storylines in a pilot never vary in their construction, regardless of how 'hip' the show
  • What those storylines are and how to 'weave them' together
  • How to use the deep secret of 'original theme' the same way Gilligan, Chase, Fellowes, Pizzolatto, Weiner, and Sorkin do to drive your pilot AND every episode
  • Re-energizing yourself when you lose inspiration. (TV story requires a different energy - learn how to channel it)
  • Using the hidden patterns of your TV genre to leapfrog ahead (there are 13 different TV genres)
  • 'Do I create a pilot or write a spec of an existing show? The benefits of both.
  • Finding a great story from what's happening right now in the world.
  • How to find a writing partner

Nice refreshing seasonal body wash
Scent: Aquatic
Good fragrance body wash. I really do like cremos limited seasonal fragrances. This one is light and refreshing. Wish it would last a bit longer but overall does lather well and smells great while showering. A little goes a long way so I do appreciate that this bottle should last long. The viscosity of the liquid is easy to pour and suds up nicely with a loofah. Overall good value and would recommend.

• Create a signature fragrance for a foaming dispenser
Scent: Palo Santo, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Scent: Palo Santo, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
One of the features that I enjoy about liquid soap is its ability to quickly refresh skin. This Palo Santo product is certainly one of the most unique offerings on the market; it is warm and pleasant, albeit a short-lasting fragrance as should be expected of any body wash. While most customers will consider using this product exclusively as a body wash, my preference is to enjoy it throughout the day as a hand and face refreshment. Use a foaming soap dispenser This product can be used as a daily hand and facial wash. Now, you might be thinking that this would be pretty inconvenient because the product is contained in a talI bottle with a flip-up top that can be both clumsy to use and takes up counter space. To address these problems, transfer the product into a small, foaming pump, counter top dispenser. Now I know what you’re thinking; how is this possible? This product has a viscosity similar to syrup. It will never pass through a foaming dispenser. And you would be correct in that critique; so don’t use it straight-up from the Cremo bottle. Instead, dilute the product with water. Since I’ve used this method before with other liquid soap products, I know that it will work consistently by following a few simple steps. The goal is to make a diluted solution of at least 90% warm water and 10% product, in other words a 9-to-1 dilution. Using a smaller ratio with too much product will likely jam the pumping mechanism because the product is too viscous to transit the foaming mechanism. How would this be done? Step 1. Select an empty foaming soap dispenser. The brand is not as important as long as you are able to fill it with water and soap product. Step 2. Fill the dispenser with warm water to reach about three inches from the top of the bottle. Step 3. Pour in Palo Santo to raise the water level to about one inch above the existing water line. Step 4. Cover the top of the dispenser with your palm and gently mix the product and water by rocking the bottle, or stir the product until it mixes with the water. I don’t recommend shaking the bottle. Shaking will result in a lot of soapy lather escaping the container before the pump top is reattached. Note: When filling the container, leave enough air space at the top of the dispenser for the stem and pump mechanism to be returned to the container. Overfilling just means that some product will escape when recapped. Step 5. After the top is reattached, prime the pump a few times and the foam mixture should smoothly leave the bottle. Photo One shows the water and Palo Santo mixture. As you can see, the mixture is transparent. The result is an easy to use hand and face foam wash. This pump spray approach means that the Cremo bottle can be stored away until a refill is needed. This process should work for every clear Cremo product. Create your signature fragrance The Palo Santo fragrance is unique, but its colorless appearance in a dispenser is not inviting. The product could use some color to make it more appealing and some zhoosh fragrance from another product. To accomplish this, add an extra body wash product that is both colorful and has a complementary fragrance to the original Palo Santo. All it takes is this addition to Step 3: Step 3-PLUS. Add about a quarter inch of another liquid soap to the container and mix it as in Step 4. The result is now a colorful mixture with a more expressive fragrance. Three different combinations In my first trial, Palo Santo was mixed with sage and cedar wood that added an attractive teal color (see photo 2). In the second trial Palo Santo was mixed with mint and rosemary making a blue combo (see photo 3). The third trial was a mixture of coconut and black pepper creating a purple mixture (see photo 4). Each of these combinations produced a complex blend of fragrances that would appeal to family and friends. Blend Palo Santo to your personal taste Palo Santo has a reputation for being a “mature” fragrance. Fair enough. But it does need to be—like Old Spice(y) or Hai Karate. Instead, it can be developed into a more chic and modern choice. By adding a dash of extra ingredients, you can design a blended Palo Santo fragrance that is both more complex and appealing. Certainly, with a little experimentation, you can also create a variety of mixtures that enhance Palo Santo and broaden the spectrum of your daily hand and face wash products. Just start with your favorite Cremo product and zhoosh-it-up.
