Overview

Dear Fellow Writer,

You’d have to agree that television is one of the miracles of our modern technological age.

TV unites and comforts us all. The small screen inspires, informs and entertains, transforming our lives since its invention last century in a myriad of incalculable ways.

Let’s face it – you love it!

But have you ever asked yourself:

Could I Write For TV?

Fact is, someone has to – because the TV networks need a constant and never-ending supply of new shows…

Okay, so your next question will most likely be:

Can I Get In On Writing For TV?

And the answer is: of course you can, if you sign up NOW for my latest Academy writing course:

Writing Successful Drama and Comedy for TV Networks!

First off, let’s see if you have what’s needed to write for TV:

Do you have…

A fertile imagination

A need to communicate in writing to the masses

The ability to tell a compelling story (I can teach you that!)

Information on how to pitch to Networks & TV Producers (I got that covered for you too!)

Expert knowledge about the ‘rules’ of TV writing…

Now, this is where I come into my own.

In case you don’t know me, I’m Rob Parnell, considered by many online sources (including Google and Wikipedia) and various personalities to be the first and last authority on writing, self-motivation and personal creativity.

I have created over 110 published books, courses, books, and information resources, many of which have been translated into foreign languages. I am often described by friends, family, and students as an ‘over-achiever’!

For the last decade, I have been increasingly drawn to the visual media. As a writer, I’ve worked with Hollywood producers, been intimately involved with some very exciting film and TV projects and, best of all, been paid a small fortune by production companies and media funding bodies to learn and hone my screenwriting abilities.

So much so that we’ve recently formed our own production company, R&R Books Film Music, just to deal with the legal issues and logistics that tend to surround working within the visual media.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
