UGC Writers Campus by Series Mania is an intense writing training conducted in English, open to emergent screenwriters.

Over the course of one week, twenty selected authors have the great opportunity to attend high standard workshops and masterclasses with experimented professionals who accompany them as mentors/tutors in the developing of their series project.

By the end of the week, after individual and group work sessions, participants benefit from the wide exposure of the Series Mania Forum, meeting producers, broadcasters and many industry professionnals.

AN INTENSE AND HIGH-QUALITY TRAINING

Unique opportunity for international creators to develop projects, UGC Writers Campus by Series Mania adresses drama issues and narrative strategies essential to series. The training also insists on the market comprehension by focusing on the necesity to make the public engage and to answer the needs of the industry.

Real incubator at the heart of Series Mania Forum, UGC Writers Campus allows authors to work with their well-known tutors while meeting with industry decision makers. During the previous editions, Sarah Treem (In Treatment, The Affair) and André & Maria Jacquemetton (Mad Men) were sponsoring the workshop.

For the 2020 edition, the president of the campus is Eli Horowitz, the creator and showrunner of the highly successful Amazon series Homecoming, starring Julia Roberts, with Season 2 set for the 2020 spring.
