Success Stories: JUL'1 Requested! Some of the greatest words to hear.

Requested! Some of the greatest words to hear.

It doesn't make a difference whether it is the first time a screenplay is requested or the 50th. It makes a writer feel special when someone wants to see their work. I pitched this weekend and my script was requested by Maven Pictures. All of us must keep writing, and keep putting our work out there.

Charlotte Talley

I agree

Pete Stone

Indeed, it is a great feeling for a writer, congrats!

Stephen Barber

Great job Coletta!

Andrea Adler

Yes, yes!!! I know the feeling... It is such a great accomplishment.... I'm waiting to hear back from the Weinstein Co. myself... OYE!

Boomer Murrhee

Way to go Coletta!

Kathaleen M. Brewer

I'm still struggling with pitching. Did you do it live or was it written? Did you stick pretty much to the main character's arch through ACT I, ACT II, ACT III or approach it differently?

Emma J Steele

Congratulations, Coletta!

Hi Kathleen, I did an oral pitch. What I did was I read my script and made notes so that I could give a clear, concise pitch which hit all the important parts; main characters, highlights of Act I, II and II. Tell your pitch from your heart and show who your character is and the journey they must take.
