Invites you to attend
Final Draft Diversity & Inclusion at the Script Level
“Who Are Your Characters?”
The entertainment industry is committed to diversity and inclusion in ways it never has been before and FINAL DRAFT has created a tool to help measure the results.
Developed with consultation from the Geena Davis Institute, the current update to Final Draft 11 now includes an Inclusivity Analysis feature that makes tracking and measuring character traits easy and seamless.
In this hands-on demo of the feature, Final Draft will show you how to quickly assign and measure the ethnicity, gender, age, disability or any other definable trait of the characters in your screenplay and display the results on your cover page for quick reference by producers and executives.
The Inclusivity Analysis demo will be followed by advanced tips and tricks for writers as well as a Q&A session.
This invitation is nontransferable. Events are overbooked to compensate for no-shows.

RSVP Cancellation Policy
Three-Strike Rule
We understand that unplanned issues can come up and you may need to cancel your attendance at an event. If that happens, you must provide adequate notice of your cancellation or else you will incur a late-cancellation penalty.
For evening events, you must cancel your reservation by 9:00am on the day of the event to avoid a penalty.
For mid-day events, unless otherwise specified, you must cancel with at least 24 hours’ notice to avoid a penalty.
Cancellations must be made by email; phone cancellations will not be accepted.
After missing three events without sending a cancellation notice to events@wgaeast.org within the defined window, you will be notified that you have been placed on a three-month hiatus from attending WGAE screenings.
Please note that is your responsibility to track your reservations and strikes. You will only be notified upon your third and final strike that you have been placed on hiatus. Our priority is ensuring that our programming is robustly attended and accessible to all members. We hope this policy will enable us to better serve the needs of all members.
