My name is Aadip Desai (he/him/his/dude). I pronounce it: adeep or uhdeep. Rhymes with that Adele song, rolling in “the deep.” I’m a doer of things… screenwriter, fellowship whisperer (application coach), interviewer/panelist, teacher, creative sidekick, musician, comedian, marketer, and yes, that dork from S4 of Worst Cooks in America.

Why dowe hear this refrain so often? Voice is essential to hook your reader, keep them engaged, and ultimately, for us, get to represent us, hire us to develop, buy our pilot/feature, put us up for an OWA (Open Writing Assignment), and of course, staff on a TV series. Specifically, how does this work? 1. Voice is a massive part of your brand, if no...
I recently spoke with several showrunners who reiterated that having an original pilot script that matches or compliments the voice of their show (and possibly specific characters) is key in getting considered.
