Sign Up for Dan Cohen’s Seminar ‘Taking the Step’

Dan Cohen:

As an award-winning writer/executive producer who has worked on 14 prime time series over a 25-year career, I have created, “Taking The Step”, a seminar designed to help upper class college students transition into the world of entertainment. While lecturing at film schools across the country, from USC to Northwestern to BU, I always felt juniors and seniors could use help bridging that gap. This led to the birth of “Taking The Step”, which I recently found time to premiere at UCLA and Cal State Fullerton to much success.

“Dan Cohen has developed a terrific, results oriented class for upper-level college students and recent grads majoring in communications programs who want to break into the motion picture and television industries” – Garrett Hart, Chair and Professor of Cinema/Television Arts at Cal State Fullerton

“Dan brings an enormous body of real-world experience into his class. He does a great job of showing students the tools available to them, and how to employ those tools to get started in their job search. Most importantly, Dan demystifies the process and helps build the students’ confidence as they look to break into these highly competitive fields.”
