The WGC Ride-Along Program

Ride along program

The WGC Professional Development Committee wants to generate more opportunities for writers of all levels. To that end, we’re setting up a Ride-Along Program, which will enable writers to observe the writing room process and make new industry connections. The ride-along will be an unpaid position, meaning ride-alongs are not to participate creatively (for example, being “camera off, mic off” in Zoom rooms). Length of ride-along time is recommended as one or two days, up to a maximum of one week. Exact time to be agreed between “ride-along” and “showrunner.” 
 

If you are interested in doing a ride-along in a writers room, sign up HERE. If you are a showrunner, sign up HERE


While the ride-along program is run by the WGC Professional Development Committee, WGC staff supports the coordination and administration of the program.
