The Tv Campfire

While most stories follow a linear path, some are best told in parallel - unfolding across multiple timelines that inform and shape one another, while simultaneously deepening our understanding of the story and its characters. Join the showrunners behind the HBO Max original series "The Staircase" and "Station Eleven" for a closer look at what makes a story suited to this structure, how to creatively juggle one story across multiple points in time, and the ways in which a multi-timeline structure changes the stakes and challenges our expectations as viewers.This panel was recorded at ATX TV Festival Season 11 (June 2-5, 2022) in Austin, TX.PANELISTS:Maggie Cohn (Co-Showrunner/Writer/EP, The Staircase)Patrick Somerville (Creator/Showrunner/EP, Station Eleven)Ben Travers (Moderator, IndieWire)SUBSCRIBE to youtube.com/ATXTV for more panels, conversations & events with your favorite TV creatives and casts.FOLLOW ATX TV:Twitter: twitter.com/ATXFestivalFacebook: facebook.com/ATXFestivalInstagram:
