INDUSTRY 101 PODCAST

 
 
 

The Humanitas Industry 101 Podcast is a part of a series of events and content introducing topics that are foundational to understanding and launching television and film writing careers. The podcast features audio from our digitized archive, as well as new conversations.

Dating back to 1974, Humanitas has a long history of presenting workshops for writers exploring craft and career issues. In 2022, we created the Industry 101 event series as a continuation of that work.

We are now launching the Humanitas Industry 101 Podcast to start new conversations and highlight historical ones from our archive, which holds over 200 hours of audio of conversations recorded on cassette tapes between 1990-2006 and digitized by our staff in Fall 2024.

Humanitas's Industry 101 is made possible with support from our series sponsor Sony Pictures Entertainment.
