With over twenty years’ experience in the entertainment industry, McFarlin began her career as a production assistant at CNN in Atlanta, GA., and she has garnered a strong reputation for crafting layered, elevated stories of larger-than-life characters that are "wildly" entertaining. McFarlin knows firsthand how the very competitive industry chooses projects and content creators to slate and work with, so she and her team at Birds Eye Entertainment (B.E.E.) have created the bootcamps to empower those aspiring writers, directors, producers, and industry professionals looking to enhance their knowledge and skills for heightened success. Participants will experience an intense 3-day workshop series that arms them with the tangible tools they need to navigate the world of television and film.
