LAWTF will be highlighting all of its workshops and panels as we get closer to our exciting educational event and is kicking off LAWTF's third spotlight with our workshop below:
HOW TO SUBMIT A WINNING PACKAGE
FOR A SOLO FESTIVAL
11:05 a.m. - 12:35 p.m.
(Workshop)
This returned workshop will cover the do's and don'ts participants need to know for submitting an impressive presentation of their work for a solo performance festival, from the application form to photographs and action shots, as well as learning to write a compelling cover letter. Attendees will learn to discern between a good DVD and bad DVD for submission and how to insure their demo is calibrated for viewing on a standard DVD player. Participants will learn what goes into an engaging high quality performance that the panelists are looking for when they review submitted work.
