February 2026 Tisch Alumni Script Development and Networking Group
The purpose of this monthly event is to promote collaboration and community within Tisch alumni community. Writer members will have a place to present their dramatic script work and receive peer feedback. Actor members will have an opportunity to work on new works in their early stages of development with the possibility of productions outside of NYU once completed. All participating Tisch alumni will be able to foster connections with fellow alumni from various Tisch departments. Each meeting features four writers presenting fifteen minutes of their work. This is followed by fifteen minutes of peer feedback.
The February meeting will feature the special guest presentation:
AN EVENING WITH VETERAN SCREENWRITER, ROBERT L. MCCULLOUGH
Veteran screenwriter Robert (Bob) L. McCullough will discuss what producers and agents are looking for, how to position film and TV scripts for success, and how to navigate the business side of writing with clarity and confidence.
Bob’s credits include writing episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, JAG, Falcon Crest and Murder, She Wrote. He co-hosts the popular podcast Where Hollywood Hides. All attendees will receive a free hardcopy of one of his books.
