Are you trying to break into the animation industry …alone?
Hello, I’m Pietro Schito
An animation screenwriter with credits in films, a TV series, and shorts. You may know me from my Write for Animation YouTube channel, where I share writing tips and host animation masters.
As a story consultant, I’ve mentored storytellers from Pixar, Netflix, Disney, and Dreamworks.
Despite my passion, there was a time I nearly quit…
Despite devouring screenwriting books and masterclasses, the daunting blank page often won. No matter how much I would try, there was always some obstacle in the way…
…and sucking me into this endless loop of procrastination:
✈️
Then, I was blessed with a scholarship to study screenwriting in L.A. — I couldn’t believe that an animation nerd like me, an Italian artist, was going to Hollywood!
☝️This is me meeting Hollywood celebrities😜
In L.A., I met several professional animation screenwriters… and slowly realized something rather unexpected…
I WAS NOT ALONE!
These writers were experiencing the same frustrations I was -and they’re professionals!
What do they do differently?
Successful screenwriters focus on three surprisingly simple things:
1 · WRITING CONSISTENTLY
2 · MASTERING THE CRAFT
3 · NURTURING CONNECTIONS
So instead of relying on discipline, I started building a writing habit.
Instead of picking up another screenwriting book, I focused on learning from the masters.
Finally, I created a system to connect with fellow writers, story artists, directors, and producers.
And little by little things started to change.
I finally started writing consistently, getting my first gigs, and meeting more and more professional writers.
I want to offer you what I was missing for far too long. That’s why I’m launching…
