Other guests invited to participate via zoom
Zoom will control your access after you RSVP.
Join Writers Boot Camp Founder, Jeffrey Gordon (JG) with Amotz Zakai from Echo Lake Entertainment to discuss the process of developing as a writer and creating material to showcase your brand, which, in turn, shapes how the industry views you and attracts representation. They’ll also discuss how writers go from breaking into the industry to being an industry darling. The discussion will naturally address all the issues and questions you have about representation in this market, especially after the writers’ strike.
Amotz Zakai has worked at Echo Lake Entertainment since 2001, first in the production/financing division and now on the management side representing directors and writers from all over the world. A Writers Boot Camp alumnus, Amotz grew up in Jerusalem, Israel and received his BFA from the Rochester Institute of Technology and his MFA from the Peter Stark Producing Program–the same grad program as JG at the University of Southern California. He and his wife Abigail live in Los Angeles with their three children.
