Latino Writers Lab

The Latino Writers Lab is designed to assist up-and-coming Latino writers who aspire to create independent feature scripts, or work in the film and television industry, but who need skills development and mentoring in order to advance. In partnership with Time Warner and the WGA-East, the Writers Lab created a unique format to help develop strong, viable screenplays for production or sale. 12-16 writers participate in this intensive workshop which runs 10 days.
