Introduce Yourself : Screenwriter in Tennessee by Billy Dominick

Wishing you all the best with the pitching, Billy!

Nice advice, V.

Thanks for the advice although it seems impossible to stay away from the 13-24 group since they play leads in two of my scripts. Currently, I have a fight choreographer lined up to handle the action scenes in my teaser trailer once funding becomes more readily available. As far as big names, I believe that you can't achieve anything if you don't at least try. Big deal if I get shot down by an agent. Like I mentioned on here before, a star's agent shot down a script which the star ended up taking when approached on facebook or myspace.

Hey Vic, I wasn't talking about one I encountered. Alexa Vega's agent turned down the movie Repo the Genetic Opera but she starred in the movie once one of the main people involved in the movie contacted her directly via social media.

Hey there Billy. Man, all I can say is go for it. Believe in your talents and meet people. Not trying to get all hippie, but constantly visualize your path & you'll get there. Pessimism will be your enemy, so stay away from doubters and so called experts. You can do this!

Nicely said, Edmund.

Edmund, thanks for the words of encouragement. Vic, I never thought you were attacking me but it does sound like you attacked the 13-24 group "they will give you the worst time" Would it be so wrong to offer an actress 20% equity

All my best to everyone! You're doing it, and that's what's important. Practice and persistence, yes?

Thanks, Richard!

That is the truth.
