International TV Writing Models ft. Des Doyle (Showrunners) (PT122)
Paper Team - A podcast by Alex Freedman & Nick Watson
Alex and Nick invite Des Doyle, director of the Showrunners documentary, and behind several writing programs for Screen Skills Ireland, to discuss international TV writing and exporting the showrunner model to other markets.
