IN THIS EPISODE: We cut right to the chase, and introduce the two basic steps that are required to sell ANY movie idea -- two steps most writers will never take. As long as movies are made, producers will NEED fresh, original screenplays. But most writers don't understand (or completely ignore) the needs of the producer -- what they're looking for and WHY. But how can you sell a screenplay if you don't understand the buyer? Screenplays only exist to be turned into movies, so connecting your project with its ideal producer is as important as writing a great story. Discover why most writers are spinning in circles, and most screenwriting advice misses the mark entirely -- and exactly what to do about it.
