@dawndekeyserwrites: It helps if your script is high-concept. It helps if you have credits in the industry. It helps if you keep the faith and keep writing. #writingtips #specscript #screenwriting #creativewriting
How do you get a script read to even pitch? Labs? Black list? Emailing production companies? Do you need reps?

Kristen Ruhlin Film/TV Exec 🎬 :
This is how I sold the first script I wrote and got into the WGA. It wasn’t a perfect script, I wasn’t a “great” writer but the concept was big enough to get offers and sold/produced to theatres. ESP in horror those big concepts are/were very sellable

There is always a market for a good idea. As always, it’s about who you know and the stars aligning. And it confirms that we need to not waste our time with perfectionism.

Sales happen continuously in Hollywood, many people just don’t tell everyone. They silently celebrate their success solely or with a select intimate circle of friends. Be encouraged: “if you don’t get out of line, your turn will come!”

When you pitch, all investors wanna hear is “am I actually going to make money back on this”. For producers (I am one), when you pitch, they just gotta know if they can sell it and how they can sell it. HBO, Apple, etc. They’ll buy a solid idea then let you go develop it. It’s not that complicated

I live in the Hudson Valley and have 2-3 scripts that I would like to get out. Any suggestions on how to get it in the right hands?

What tips do you have for an unknown writer who has written a high concept spec script that they want to get read?

Jason Lubin - Literary Manager :
I think the way to look at it is can this script convince other people to get on board. Will a director, cast, and executives see the vision and want to say yes? Easy to pitch/get big ideas

Matthias Hues :
She was lucky :) I pitched my script to a producer friend in LA who had his develop team send me an e mail back saying sorry at this moment it doesn’t fit our slate or something like it but the produced the movie in the same year even took the actress who was outlined in the script and pitch and slightly scripted the story sequence but kept all the main hooks of the script in painful detail the movie Untraceable with Diane Lane … I was to intimidated at that point in my career to seek legal ! But you live and learn and yes keep writing 🖋️

If I have a book deal, is it worth it for me to write a screenplay version of it in parallel?
