Write your TV pilot online via Zoom in nine weeks with live feedback!



9 x 2.5 hours Class size 1 to 6 guests   $300 - $400 ($400 per guest when you book for 1 guest, $300/guest for 2+ guests)

Your TV show starts here -- with a blank page, a bold idea, and nine weeks that turn “someday” into a solid rough draft! In this supportive, small-group screenplay writing class, you’ll go from concept to completed TV pilot draft step by step. Whether you’ve been secretly outlining episodes in your Notes app or you’re brand new and curious about how to write a screenplay, you’ll learn how to shape your idea into a structured, compelling story.
If you can tell a story and write an email, you already have the foundation. This course simply shows you how to write better, with clarity, purpose, and momentum! You’ll break down the structure of a TV pilot, explore what makes a series engine work, and learn how to write for a TV show in either a 30-minute or 60-minute format.
Along the way, you’ll build real skills in giving and receiving feedback -- so your script keeps getting sharper, funnier, tighter, and more you. Classes run as a live online writing course over Zoom, making it easy to join from anywhere. By week nine, you won’t just understand TV writing -- you’ll have written your own pilot.

I believe in the power of storytelling and performance to bring out the unique perspectives and experiences of individuals, which fosters learning, empathy, and community through entertainment. Hobbies are a great way to expand social ideological openness because people come from diverse backgrounds over shared interests.
My favorite thing about teaching is supporting others in their journey towards self-confidence and self-expression. You alone are the only person who can have your perspective and tell your story. And in telling that story, you might just find connection with others.
My name is Jake Jabbour and I am an improv and scriptwriting teacher in Los Angeles. I was a 2010 Teach For America Corps member and taught Special Education for ten years. I got my Master’s in Instructional Strategies from Loyola Marymount University.
