Pilot I: Creating the World
The only tv writing class you'll ever need...Dylan covered everything (with primo examples)! You'll read and dissect the best scripts, write both in and out of class, and get feedback from a master. I signed up for level 2 about 60 seconds after it was offered. If you're serious about getting stronger and finally realizing that idea, do yourself a favor and take this class. -

Pilot I: Creating the World
Dylan is such a great teacher! He's got a lot of enthusiasm in class and gives lots of great information and feedback. It's a great class to take if you want to start your first pilot script or rework a current one you want to finish. Class is weekly and very structured and homework reading other pilots and watching them. A must if you want to write your first pilot! -
Pilot I: Creating the World
dylan was great, solid knowledge, likeable, gut clarity around story structure and conflict was great having a weekly deadline [and gave me a good clear nudge when i was slacking off -without shaming] -
TV Pilot Crash Course
This class was informative and encouraging! Dylan was an engaging speaker and an engaged listener, and laid out the foundational elements of writing a tv pilot. I would recommend having an idea for a pilot in mind to get the most out of the exercises done in class.
