Professor Gantt? Win Tickets to ‘Bannen Way’ Star’s Class

Mark Gantt is a mysterious man. Ok, actually if you’re been paying even passing attention to web series over the past year then you’re no doubt familiar with the story of him and partner Jesse Warren hustling together a spec trailer to a web series (The Bannen Way) they hadn’t even shot yet and landing full season order and distribution from Sony Pictures Television.

But there’s still a mystery to this guy. And this weekend Streamy-winner Gantt plans to share some of his secrets to carving out his own path in the entertainment industry and not waiting for success to just come to him.

His “Create Your Own Career” workshop is this Saturday, August 28th in Los Angeles from 12pm – 6pm and looks to be targeted at people looking to craft a project for the internet. The daylong class will cover the gambit of web entertainment topics like “Producing for the Web,” Monetizing Your Content” and “Benefits of Pitch Website.”

I’ve been doing a lot of panels recently and one of the things I keep hearing from attendees is that they “Still don’t know how to do it.” I’ll break down what we did with Bannen as well as several other successful web series and will also take a few projects from participants in the workshop and we’ll build a strong foundation for them to move forward and create their own career. – Mark Gantt
