In this month’s “Ask the Coach” article, I’m responding to a writer about script marketing, who says:
“Hello, I come by this way to be informed about where to send my 44 movie scripts? I sent it to CAA (Creative Artists Agency) and wrote to Steven Spielberg… and they don’t answer. I called CAA by cellphone and they turned my call off. Can you please help me make the next steps?”
There are a number of aspects to this question, so I’ve addressed them one-by-one. Here’s a quick high level view of the article’s main points:
- Be aware the signals you’re sending.
- Understand who you’re approaching.
- Recognize marketing one script at a time will position it best.
- Pick your best script to market first.
You’ll want a professional, simple, and direct query letter that positions your script as attractive to industry professionals and demonstrates that you can clearly convey both the story and what makes it marketable.
