Due to the ongoing cost of living crisis and following many requests received over the last few months, we’ve decided to offer tier-based pricing for our main Advanced Development course and its TV Series add-on module.

This new pricing system — available until we reach capacity — offers significant discounts for independent producers (30% OFF), in-work individual filmmakers (50% OFF) and students / unemployed (70% OFF). This means that, for those selecting the lowest tier, the cost of each course is now as low as $297 and $237 respectively, for a one-year access.

[EDIT August 2024: We now have new premium membership options that make our courses even more affordable.]

The idea is that independent producers (who usually don’t pay VAT or can claim it back) and in-work individual filmmakers pay a bit more in order to help students / unemployed filmmakers to access the course at a lower cost, and hopefully get their first job or get back to work soon!

The title of each tier is just a guide. We’ve simply decided to give our users the freedom to choose the right tier for them. So feel free to select a lower tier if that’s all you can afford for now, and don’t hesitate to select a higher tier if you’d like to help further.

To reward those paying the standard price on either course, we’ll include a free script chat on a project ($650 value), again until we reach capacity. Simply get in touch once you’ve completed the course and mention the discount code SCRIPTCHAT.

We hope this new “Pay-What-You-Can” pricing system will help even more filmmakers and storytellers access our training. Remember that if you’ve already done an online course or a live workshop with us, you can also redeem the reward points accumulated during the course at checkout for up to $100 off, on top of any discount and on any price tier.
