THE PROGRAMME

THE WRITERS ROOM

One of the core pillars of WORDS ACROSS EUROPE is our incorporation of the most proven writers’ room methodologies from both sides of the Atlantic. Our initiative is tailored for writers who are ready to collaborate in an intense virtual environment. By harnessing the collective input of our chosen teams, we aim to foster content that reflects the diverse cultures and perspectives of our rich European culture.

9 Writers, 9 Countries: Discovering European Stories

Empowering EU Writers through VR

All sessions of WORDS ACROSS EUROPE will take place in a VR/AR writers’ room featuring the latest Meta technology. Using this innovative method, participants will be invited to create from the comfort of their own homes. In addition to eliminating any carbon footprint, our programme will also allow greater access to talented writers who may not be able to travel. Participants will be provided with all necessary VR/AR headsets as well as any appropriate tuition.

Impressions From Previous Participants

“I learned more about writing for TV on WORDS ACROSS EUROPE than I ever could have expected, but what I’m most grateful for is the friends that I’ve made on the program from all over Europe.”

“It’s like going back to school, I was completely immersed in writing and surrounded by like-minded peers. It’s such a relief to know there are others in the same boat and a screenwriting career is not as hopeless as it appears.”

“WAE was an enriching experience—from expanding my network and receiving guidance from amazing mentors, to gaining insights from industry professionals. Most of all, I had the chance to collaborate with incredible writers. And even now, when I think of them, I still see their avatars.”
