NEW SPECIAL CELEBRITY GUEST SESSIONS
ADVANCED WRITING FOR THE TELEVISION INDUSTRY
This Course is for the most Advanced writers who have previously been through a series of Sessions focused on writing long form Character and Story Development.

What makes the Advanced Writing For The Television Industry so unique is you will be matched with a guest Celebrity Mentor with Major Industry Credits.

What makes the program more Advanced is, since you passed an application process, you will be learning direct Hollywood Industry Standards in the development of your show. This differs from the Independent streak we generally follow in order to give everyone the spirit and ability to complete amazing projects on your own. Here in the Advanced program you will be given more Rigid Instruction designed for you to go out and get your own Agent, and/or pitch to a Television Company. Your communication skills must be high functioning in order to accomplish what is needed to Pitch to an Executive.  *Note: Tink Tank Animate, nor the Guest Mentor are responsible for getting the artist meetings, pitches, or introductions...this does not mean it won't happen, just do not expect it...that is your responsibility. The Hollywood Industry is 500% luck, 90% talent, 1000% being prepared for that Lucky Break. We are here to "prepare you," giving you all the tools to get a slammdunk.

The Application Link will be live by the end of July for September Session Start.
If you want a head start, here is what we will be looking for:
                  A) Personal Essay about why you want to create TV shows ( 1 page single space )
                  B) Examples of past Story Writing, and/or Script Writing
                  C) Your most Narrative Short Film
                  D) Illustrated Portfolio
                  E) One Paragraph about an idea you'd like to develop in the Advanced Course 
Note* Do not think More is Better in your Application.


ARTIST MANAGEMENT  - 
Learn to manage your Artist on the Spectrum
PARENTS, GUARDIANS, HELPERS, FRIENDS, or YOURSELF
1 hour Sessions

The number of Sessions would depend on how much you want to know, don't know, need to know, have time to know, have time to do once you know, or if you need assistance and advice along the way.

It is highly recommended all Parents, Guardians, etc, sign up for a minimum of 1 Session to learn the basics of how to apply basic Self-Distribution to the project you are creating at Tink Tank Tank. This would include where and how to upload videos, where and how to publish a book and download and upload book templates, and the Basic Food Groups of Social Media for Artist Products.

Every Project will have similarities and large differences in this department. Learning to Distribute a Book is not like Distributing a Film or an Audio Book, or Song, or Opera, yet much is similar in the needs to create production marketing workflows for posters, fliers, videos, and other promotions, your artist is fully capable of doing if given the proper specs which we will teach you as the Manager.

We will discuss PR options, Word of Mouth Options, Content Choices, Resources. We will listen to your questions and give you answers you can accomplish, not answers that make you feel like any of this is our of you or your Artist's league.

Tink Tank would love to Manage all of the Artists that we get to take under our wings, but we just will not be able to do such. That said, we plan to find more and more ways to present our Artists to the world, involve the families, involve the Autism, Special Needs, and Trauma Communities, involve the Private Sector, the Museums, the Galleries, the Schools, Parks, Libraries, all who love art, all who are moved by art, and all who are looking for a fresh voice, and that voice will come from those who now have a chance through self-distribution to spread their unique stories despite the obstacles of the Autism Spectrum, Learning Disabilities, Injuries, and Trauma.

Help spread the word, learn how to Manage your Artist.

COMING SOON: LEGACY PROJECTS
Legacy Projects are for Individuals and Families of Individuals who are currently in, or will be entering Hospice Care.

COMING SOON: MENTOR / PRODUCER RETAINERS

We know a Mentor can mean a lot to you, and we want to do our best you get to remain comfortable throughout the years you choose to express yourself in the Arts of Storytelling.
