with Douglas Moser
 
Sometimes you need to work with someone who has experience in the field. Douglas Moser has worked as a professional director, playwright, and producer for over 40 years, and he understands the creative process from all angles. His insights tie the thematic and dramatic structure with a practical understanding of the craft. This mentorship program begins with a 15-minute interview to assess your individual needs. Following that will be a full read of your project, followed by a one-hour review session, complete with written notes and suggestions. Following that will be four more half-hour sessions to review rewrites and set goals for continued work. New projects are also welcome.
