**🎬 Screenwriters' Meetup Invitation 🎬** This meetup is for anyone passionate about storytelling—whether you’re a screenwriter, filmmaker, producer, or someone with a great idea looking for the right collaborators. Whether you’re just starting out or deep into your screenplay, this is the perfect space to create, collaborate, and refine your work. **When You Bring Your Screenplay, Think About Three Key Ingredients:** 1. **Your Main Character** – Who are they? What drives them? 2. **The Central Conflict** – What’s at stake? What’s standing in their way? 3. **The Theme** – What’s the deeper idea that motivates you to tell this story? If you’re struggling to find a theme, define your character, or establish a strong conflict—don’t worry. That’s exactly what this meetup is for. We’re here to help you uncover the core of your story and give you the tools to develop it further. Already have an elaborate story? Great! Reflect on these elements: * **Compelling Characters** – Are they layered, dynamic, and memorable? * **Inner Conflicts, Interpersonal Tensions, and Global Stakes** – Does your story operate on multiple levels? * **A Strong, Personal Theme** – Does your theme resonate with you and give your story purpose? If you can identify these elements, we can dive even deeper and give you focused, constructive feedback to help your screenplay reach its full potential. Bring your ideas, your drafts, and your passion. Let’s collaborate, challenge each other, and create stories that matter. We can’t wait to see you there!

As always, the meetup is open to producers, songwriters, DJs, and musicians of all types and proficiency levels looking to exchange ideas, network, meet like-minded producers, and learn new tips and tricks from our presenters and fellow participants. In this special topic Ableton User Group, we'll look at drum programming in Live 12 from a beginner perspective.

During the event, you will also have the opportunity to see the 343 Labs facilities, meet some of their instructors, and learn about their courses. **This month’s Ableton User Group will be hosted by John Selway.** John Selway is one of 343’s longest-standing instructors and is considered a pillar of the 343 community, known for his wildly popular Techno Saturdays stream on 343 TV.

Two weeks before this meetup, attendees will receive two scripts via email for review. During the first hour of the meetup, we'll delve into the details of the first script. We'll offer respectful and constructive feedback, focusing on elements such as technique, plot development, and character dynamics, addressing any plot holes, questions, or areas for improvement. At the end of this discussion session, the author of the script will have the opportunity to ask questions and seek clarification from the readers. Enjoy a 10-minute break to recharge and mingle with fellow writers. Followed by the second hour repeating the format for the second script. **Guidelines:** * Respectful Creativity: Our discussions are centered around respectful and constructive criticism, aimed at helping each other grow as writers. * Technical Assessment: We encourage discussing both the technical aspects of screenwriting and the creative elements that make a script compelling. * Plot Hole Exploration: Let's work together to identify any plot holes or inconsistencies and brainstorm solutions to strengthen the narrative. * Author Engagement: Authors are encouraged to actively participate in the discussions, ask questions, and seek feedback from the group. Our meetups are held at UWS NYC, and the exact details will be communicated via email prior to each event.

From Danielle Solzman, Toronto Film Festival, September 14, 2025: “Musically, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert is a feast. Over 70 songs appear in the film, spanning Vegas shows, tours, rehearsals, and classic recordings. What truly surprised me were the covers: Elvis takes on The Beatles’ “Yesterday” and “Something.” I had known about him weaving “Get Back” into a 1970 rehearsal of “Little Sister.” But the film also highlights his renditions of Simon & Garfunkel, Ray Charles, Dusty Springfield, Bob Dylan, Three Dog Night, Brenda Lee, Edwin Hawkins, and The Righteous Brothers.EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert is less about biography and more about the music, the performance, and the magic of Elvis Presley. Every restored frame, every note, every cover feels like a gift to fans old and new. It’s a celebration of the King’s artistry, captured in a way that only IMAX can fully deliver—and it’s nothing short of spectacular. If you are in a position to see this on the big screen, you will not regret it.” Alright folks – I am taking Ms. Solzman’s word for it. I believe her. Join us as we watch one of the greatest entertainers of all time on the IMAX screen. We will meet in the lobby of AMC Lincoln Square 13 (1998 Broadway, at 68th St.) at 3:30. Our movie begins at 4. My seat is G28. Please purchase your ticket ASAP so you will not be disappointed. After the movie we will have dinner at an inexpensive restaurant. All are welcome and bring a friend.
