There are many steps to getting your project made, and some of the biggest happen in development. But how do you make contact with the producer and development executives who can help you bring your vision to the screen? How do you know who is the right partner or partners to choose? And what should you expect when you finally begin the development process?

Rebecca will help demystify the development process, speak to her own experience as a development executive herself, and share valuable strategies and insights for you to use as you begin your own development journey.
