Remember screenwriters, getting a read or attention from an industry executive is a rare occurrence

ScreenPit highlights your work and ups your chance of getting noticed

Be ready with a polished script, one pager and answers to questions like "Why this? Why now?"

Loglines are easy! Just follow my formula:

WHO are we watching? WHEN do we join them? WHAT are we watching them do? WHY are we watching them do it? WHEN this happens, Protagonist MUST face struggle IN ORDER TO reach goal.

Be happy that a few of your peers got reads from Industry Pros

This business is a crap shoot & it's a tough biz

Make sure your script is ready if that moment comes when a pro wants a read

Work like a Warrior
