NEXT BIZ TALK: THIS WED, MAY 20, 10am PST
JOIN US THIS WEEK as we welcome industry pro MELISSA VERDUGO, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS at WIF ( WOMEN IN FILM ) to our Wednesday night business talk.
Melissa Verdugo is a Talent Developer, Programs Manager & Producer with 15+ years of experience in the design, implementation, and long term success of multiple career development programs, creative projects, and client careers.
Before being promoted to Director of Operations at WIF in 2024, Melissa served as Senior Manager of Career Programs running the organization’s Talent & Career Development Programs, including the Mentoring Program, Emerging Producers Program, Financing Intensive co-produced with the Sundance Institute, and the flagship Fellowship program created in honor of WIF’s 50th anniversary.
Founded in 1973 as Women In Film Los Angeles, WIF advocates for and advances the careers of women working in the screen industries—in front of and behind the camera, across all levels of experience—to achieve parity and transform culture. You can find more information at www.wif.org.
Some of the topics Melissa will be covering:
- How to get your scripts seen (especially when unrepped)
- How to effectively network
- Managers & Agents — what do they each do and what does a writer need
⭐*⭐*⭐*⭐*⭐
This is going to be a very exciting talk, and not just for the women of The Writer's Forge, but for ALL MEMBERS. Don't miss it!
Once a month, our goal is to bring in an INDUSTRY PRO to share their story with us and to give insights and advice on the screen industries.
