Twice a year, we bring select ProSeries Alumni writers to town to meet 20 producers. Over the last seven years, our group has met over 150 producers and benefited from their experience.
 Our guests have included the producers of:
- The Bourne Trilogy
- Lethal Weapon
- Training day
- Die Hard
- Scrooged
- About Schmidt
- X-Men
- and 800 other movies
Weeks before the meetings, our group is prepared through a series of teleconferences so they know exactly what to expect andhow to make impression on the producers.
The meetings are up-close-and-personal. Our writers get to introduce themselves to producers and discuss how each producer works with writers. It is a unique forum where the writer gets to quiz the producers.
Sometimes actors stop by to see the group. Here you can see Martin Sheen, Gary Shusett and Hal Croasmun.
