‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Writer Teams With ‘Bayaan’ Helmer for Indian Workshop

Film Bazaar, the film market that runs alongside the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), Goa, is partnering with Film Independent‘s Global Media Makers program to launch a television writing workshop led by “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Army Wives” writer-producer Marlana Hope and Indian filmmaker Bikas Mishra, director of upcoming feature “Bayaan.”

The four-day Episodic Storytelling Workshop will take place at the Marriott Goa from Nov. 19-22, focusing on developing content for international audiences. The program will demystify the writing process from conceptualization to pitching, while providing participants with practical tools for developing material and understanding the international television landscape.

Global Media Makers operates as a cultural exchange program backed by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, focusing on mid-career writers, directors and producers in film and television. The program is implemented by Film Independent, the organization behind the Spirit Awards. Mishra is a Global Media Makers Fellow.

“Film Bazaar serves as a crucial platform for filmmakers to connect, collaborate, and showcase their work,” said Prithul Kumar, MD, National Film Development Corporation of India. “We are excited to partner with Film Independent to bring this unique workshop to our participants, helping them enhance their skills and expand their networks.”

Maria Raquel Bozzi, Senior Director of Education and International Programs at Film Independent, said: “We’re honored to collaborate with Film Bazaar, the preeminent platform for South Asian talent, bringing together our American Mentor with talented filmmakers to explore and further develop their stories in the workshop. We can’t wait to see what comes out of this experience.”

Film Bazaar, which focuses on South Asian-themed projects, runs Nov. 20-24. IFFI unspools Nov. 20-28.
