Over Beyond The Script : Career Strategy For TV and Film Writers

Beyond The Script is fun, informative, and tailor-made for TV and Feature writers. We believe it's not necessarily the technical elements of your screenwriting that need to shift to land that six-figure deal - it's mostly about mindset and strategy. We're Steve Harper and Nick Jobe, writers, coaches, and consultants. We've seen clients succeed using the ideas we lay out in this show. That's why we're passing the wisdom on to you. Be warned, we have wildly different perspectives on just about everything. The show is full of humor, passionate debates, and key insights you can apply to your own writing life.

Pitching Part 2: The Toolkit

Most writers think if they explain their show clearly enough, walk through the structure, describe the characters, outline the plot, the pitch will land. But explaining isn't pitching, and that's where most writers get stuck. A pitch requires architecture, language control, and positioning that most writers never learn because they're too focused on just getting the information across. In this final episode of Beyond the Script, Nick and Steve break down the actual craft: panoramic thinking that lets you see the whole sweep instead of recapping beats, relational architecture where each section builds on and serves the whole, the four language modes you're already using without realizing it, and how to position your show so buyers know exactly what to do with it. They also talk about endings: how creative projects have their arc, teach you what you need to learn, and then reach completion. After 36 episodes exploring the deeper work of writing and career-building, Nick and Steve are closing the loop and moving into new creative phases.

Pitching, Part 1: What Is a Pitch, Really?

Most writers think a pitch is just explaining their show clearly - walk through the characters, describe the plot, hope they like it. But a pitch isn't an explanation. It's performance, meaning, and identity wrapped into one moment. In this episode, Nick and Steve explore what a pitch actually is beneath the surface: the emotional engine that gives it heat, the personal signature that makes it yours, and how your identity and presence shape the way the room receives your story. They discuss why pitching matters so much in the industry - it's not just about selling a show, it's how execs learn who you are in real time. And they tackle the question every writer asks: should I be pitching at my stage, or should I wait until I'm "ready"? If you've ever walked out of a pitch thinking "I explained it well, why didn't they get it?" - this episode reveals what might have been missing. Part 2 (next week) will give you the practical toolkit: the structure, the language, and the craft that makes a pitch land. Beyond The Script is where screenwriting philosophy meets career momentum. To get where you want to go as a writer, you need an eye outward and an ear inward. This episode will help you develop both.

The Origin Of Ideas

Ideation gets treated like mythology. Either you’re blessed with second sight and the perfect idea drops into your lap, or you feel broken because nothing “lands.” In this episode, Nick and Steve bring the idea process back down to earth. They discuss the real origins of ideas, how to shape the sparks you already have, and how to build the scaffolding that turns an interesting thought into a story that lasts. If you’ve ever felt blocked, stuck, or convinced that your ideas aren’t “good enough,” this conversation will rev up your idea engine again and help you connect to those concepts that are most you. Beyond The Script is where screenwriting philosophy meets career momentum. To get where you want to go as a writer, you need an eye outward and an ear inward.
