Just watched #Saltburn which was not what I expected, and delighted me at every turn. Outstanding performances by everyone, and writer/director Emerald Fennell is an expert at the slow burn. One of those movies where I was glad to go in spoiler free. (Richard E Grant too 👌❤️)
Here we go. With love to all my TV industry friends and colleagues who are struggling right now. I hope this offers some hope, or at least makes you smile :) linkedin.com/posts/guylambe… #TV #media #jobs #TVindustry #freelancercrisis #LinkedIn
Looking forward to hosting this Masterclass with the mighty Simon Nelson (@macneighill) of @bbcwritersroom as part of Arts Week @birkbeck_arts. It's free but booking is essential and tickets are already going fast, so get yer skates on! bbk.ac.uk/events/remote_…
Please help this man with advice 💪
THIS! 👏👏👏
Really good thread about #shortfilm 👌
James is one of my very best friends, so we’ve talked about this show a lot over the last few months. I think it will be incredible, the most authentic pieces of comedy mixed with raw reality since Hannah Gadsby’s ‘Nanette’. It really is that important. Love this man so much 💜

I wrote a darn good LinkedIn post about losing confidence in your abilities when applying for work, and a great quote I discovered on Instagram that may help linkedin.com/posts/guylambe… #LinkedIn #jobs #employment #motivation #CV
#writers working with me always need a helping hand with getting their stories shaped for television and then there's also the issue of The #Pitch here's my thoughts on how to prepare for that challenge scriptadvice.co.uk/pitching-for-t…
I’ve pitched a lot of things in the last few months, and noticed that if the initial, simply-expressed idea doesn’t wow, the details don’t matter. They only matter if people are hooked. Interesting to see here that logline is King with script reading queries, makes total sense

This turned into a ramble about where things are at for British TV workers, which I hope might help and/or inspire. I think the key is not to leave, but to diversify (obviously depends on your situation tho). There’s a whole world out there that would love your skillset

This stuff is great for a range of writers but the criteria for application needs to be made much clearer because a lot of writers would’ve got excited by this “open script call” when it’s not that at all

I’ve made an attempt to talk about myself for #NeurodiversityWeek. Like many neurodivergent people, my experiences at school included bullying, feeling isolated and misunderstood. It’s difficult to accept yourself when the world is telling you you’re broken. #NCW #ThisIsND

#writerscommunity I've never written anything. If I wanted to get a script down, is there a preferred method? Treatment first? Character list first? Just write dialogue first? Story/world 'bible' first? I've got a few ideas in my head as concepts, I want to build on. help :)
Really good thread about #shortfilm 👌
THINGS I LEARNED FROM JUDGING SHORT FILMS AT AN L.A. FEST: 1. A LOT OF MODERN SHORTS ARE ABOUT DOGS, DEATH and/or TAXI DRIVER...which I think may be a byproduct of being (formerly) trapped in our houses.

Yes! See also: E.R., Glee, This Is Us and The Queen's Gambit - all of which started off as film scripts. David Chase originally pitched The Sopranos as a film, too.
If you have a script which ‘is a feature’ & you are determined could never be a tv series…I read a feature script in 2011 which never got made. When I started watching Succession it seemed very familiar….that one script became a multi award winning 39 episodes of tv

Had one of those script editing days that reminded me how much I love writing and the *efficiency* of writing. A good edit focuses on the essentials, cutting the word fat with big scissors, and I felt like I got that out of this script today. Tiring though, innit? 😂🥱🛌
