Make a Kids Show
Learn how great kids' shows are made..and make yours!
Create and develop your own original kids' show with Angela Santomero, creator/co-creator of Blue's Clues, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood and Super Why!
Angela has spent more than 30 years turning big ideas into beloved childrens' shows and brands. Now she's sharing the creative process she uses to take an idea from it's first spark to a purposeful, original, fully developed show that's ready to pitch.
You have an idea. I'll show you how to turn it into a show.
Maybe it's a character you can't stop thinking about. A world you wish existed when you were a kid. A story your own children or students keep asking you to tell. Or maybe you simply know you want to create something meaningful for kids..but you don't know where to begin.
That's exactly where Make a Kids Show begins.
I'll teach you how I develop ideas: starting with the child, finding the purpose, creating unforgettable characters and worlds, building a repeatable story engine and shaping it all into a show that people can understand, love and relate to.
