What is the Euroscript Speakeasy?

Every last Tuesday of the month we host an informal evening upstairs at The Wheatsheaf with professional screenwriters, producers, directors or development executives who discuss their work, share their tips for success and answer your burning questions.

Pitching at the Speakeasy

At each Speakeasy, three writers get to pitch their projects to a panel of guests and Euroscript team members and receive constructive feedback.

If you'd like to pitch, and haven't done so at a Euroscript Speakeasy before, buy your £8 ticket and then APPLY. The first three people to write in will get the pitching brief and have the chance to pitch at the next Speakeasy.

6 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD BE WRITING HORROR

Read our blog post
Here's a blog post with some good reasons why you should think about writing in the Horror genre - if you haven't already.

Not just because it's the most lucrative genre of them all, but also because it offers huge creative and intellectual challenges, opportunities to make truly cinematic stories, and the chance to reach really large audiences.

If you're a practitioner and want to polish up your skills in this genre or a newcomer keen on exploring the elements that make it work, you can go for some deep immersion at our WRITING HORROR workshop on July 12.

The workshop is aimed at leaving you with a sheaf of notes towards your own projects.

OUR FEEDBACK SERVICES

​
​SKYPE CONSULTANCY: Looking for someone to brainstorm ideas with and who can also give you detailed feedback on your script? 

We can arrange a consultancy very quickly for you to get the expert advice that you need. You can put ideas and questions directly to your editor. It doesn't matter where you are - no travelling is needed. Plus, breakthroughs often happen when you talk things through. 
​
​BAROMETER REPORT: Is your screenplay market-ready? Should it be hitting industry desks? Or the shredder?
​
The Euroscript Screenplay Barometer gives you a straight yes/no answer to this key question: ‘Yes’, your script’s brilliant, get it out as quickly as you can or ‘No’, not yet ready for dispatch.  Our aim is to encourage you, and work with you to improve your script until it's market-ready.
