n. a scratch night for sketch comedy films
A ragtag group of comedy writers, directors and performers present wips of their latest sketch creations 🥳
How It Works
As you know, most live comedy is forged with audience feedback. If you get a laugh, you know you're onto something; if you don't, you tweak things and try again. (Or re-evaluate all of your life choices.)
The aim of Sketchburn is to recreate this feedback loop for filmed comedy, at every stage of the process:
Readings
Staged readings of brand-new sketch scripts
Rough Cuts
Screenings of rough cuts fresh from the edit
Showcase
Screenings of finished sketches, ready to go!
Plus audience feedback!
What you liked and what you didn't...
Plus audience feedback!
As well as listening out for what makes you laugh, there’s time for more direct feedback after each sketch – so we can decide which bits to keep and which bits to burn forever...
