What
is Deadline Junkies?
Deadline Junkies is a group of professional
screenwriters. We meet once a week to exchange feedback
on new, cool, commercially viable screenplays. |
| |
How does it work?
Each week 3 writers bring 25-30 pages. Professional actors read
the material onstage. After each read, we conduct a 15 minute
discussion on the material. |
| |
What genres do you
cover?
Action comedy, romantic comedy, dark comedy, horror comedy --
basically anything with the word "comedy." We do some sci-fi
stuff too and even occasionally a killer sci-fi comedy. |
| |
Where
do you meet?
Open Stage West (Annex) - directions
14336 Ventura Blvd
Sherman Oaks CA 91423 |
| |
When?
Every Tuesday from 7:15PM
- 10:00PM. |

How much does it cost?
Actors and auditors pay nothing. Members pay $25
a month. Dues cover the cost of our nice, clean, air conditioned,
46-seat theater. |
| |
How
many members?
12-15 active writers. 80+ actors, auditors, producers,
directors and other important friends of the group. |

4-5 weeks. |

What's the parking
like? Does it really suck?
Not at all. We have a parking garage below the theater and plenty
of street parking. Meters run until 8:00PM. |
| |
I'm super busy. Do
I have to come every week?
No. But if you want your stuff read, you have to come. Active
writers with pathetic attendance get taken off the schedule with
relative ease. If we are going to make a commitment to your project,
we want your commitment to ours. Sound reasonable? |
| |
I'm a beginner. Is
there a chance in hell I'll get in?
It's not likely. We have quite a few beginners who come to learn,
but we usually don't put their work in front of the group. While
we strongly respect anyone with the guts to tell a story, all
our members are way past those wet nose days. Come if you need
the inspiration. But if you're still working out the basics,
this is not the group for you. |
