Screenwriting : Loglines, Synopsis, and Pitch. by Dustin Quinteros

I would say you know a considerable amount about things, just like the other things that make you unique.

I read (browsed) the terms and conditions. The first red flag for me is them misspelling their own URL in the T&C page.

What do they charge? Because it feels like a build it and they will come enterprise. If we collect all the amateur scripts in one place, we can leverage that.

Who do they pitch to. Who other than writers (names please) use this service. Everything that say they help amateur writers feels scammy.

$99 bucks! Bargain! Cheaper than paying a lawyer $7000 to submit screenplays

I agree with Nick Assunto - Stage32 Script Services Coordinator. With S32 pitches, you know exactly WHO you're pitching to. And if you want to have a career, you HAVE to be comfortable with pitching in person.

Interesting and informative comments. I was more curious as to the opinions of the accuracy and quality of the sample loglines and synopsis. It never occurred to me about the validity of the site,, but still glad to everyone for sharing.

Regardless of the business model, if you don't look at a site like that and have alarms going off in your head, you desperately need to address your gullibility.

Zero transparency on their own team.

Zero transparency on their network of professionals.

News links that don't go to actual articles.

Testimonials full of typos that keep mentioning sales but no specifics.

One success story that doesn't line up with anything on IMDb Pro.

Claiming screenplays sell for $100K+ in their advice.

A website that feels like it was built by someone off Fiverr.

Customers on their social media saying they can't get into their accounts.

Social media posts that are 99% reshared industry news.

Dead links everywhere, including even the pinned one on their Twitter account.

Never put your trust anybody or any business that keeps their identity, their successes, their associations, etc secret. It is rarely for a good reason. The business is notorious for shady, self-serving characters and even criminals. You need to have a very well calibrated bullshit detector to survive.

I'm not saying Movie Pitcher are a shady company, Network ISA used to heavily promote them in 2014, but they seem to be doing everything they can to look like a shady company.

I'm going to jump on the top of the pile here. Stage 32 pitches are the way to go. At least you get to pitch the executive of your choosing. When it's "Pitch an Expert", you can't be sure if you are pitching your rom--com to a slasher thriller producer, or a production company that does fantasy adventure.

At first blush their synopsis is full of run-on sentences...

Louisa Kendrick Burton Agreed! And with the Stage32 pitches, you get feedback, so that's always helpful :)

I agree with Louisa Kendrick Burton and Dawn Prato. Stage32 pitches are the way to go. Also if you join the Writer's Room you get to pitch in a safe, non-judgmental environment. And there are tons of educational resources on pitching available on this platform.

Dawn Prato yes! feedback is gold! it's how we grow :)

I held back on the pitches for a while because I wasn't sure where to start,but a quick email to Jason Mirch got me started - he was so helpful!
