Watch This Session
Children represent a huge and diverse audience – and they are also massive consumers of drama: on TV, at the movies and online. What’s more, writing for children is very different to writing for teens … one size does not fit all!
Writing for young audiences offers a unique challenge: kids and teens are quick to bore and are now more media literate than ever. Keeping them engaged without patronising them is a huge skill.
