Get It Made: Playbook for Screenwriters
We recently held a workshop to discuss the Playbook for Screenwriters: Screenplay Strategy and Marketing Action Plan x Matt Boda (founder of Get It Made) & Daniel John Carey (founder of Screenwriting Tribe).
Key highlights from the discussion:
Identify the right workshops/labs to hone your craft and develop your screenplay
Standard formatting matters. Use professional tools like Final Draft, WriterDuet, Celtx.
Book Recommendation: Screenwriting Tribe: Workshop Handbook for Writing and Polishing Film and TV Spec Scripts
Leverage GIMx to connect with top industry professionals and screenplay partners to develop your screenplay at the highest level via a proof of concept
Follow your favorite successful writers and see how they present themselves online... then create your own notable online profile and buzz to captivate investors and producers
Be selective when accumulating awards and accolades. Only submit to the best (notable) competitions... and find the right one for you and your screenplay!
Studio fellowships/labs are great!
But don't solely rely on these hope machines to advance your career.
Create a discovery strategy ... work with GIMx to on your marketing plan to attract agents and managers
Be prepared and professional for when your opportunity arrives
