Jane Salandria: Screenwriter and manager in Los Angeles, California.

Yay, again! I pitched a screenplay to an agency, via Skype and Happy Writers, and the person I pitched to asked to read it. Here's hoping. Representation by these folks would be a lovely thing.

Is it necessary to Copyright a Screenplay? I am preparing to finish the first draft of my first screenplay. Is it a good idea to copyright the screenplay once it is a finished product? I've heard that registering with WGA is a good idea, but registry with the LOC is best. I went to look at the LOC website but can't seem to find much information there about registry.

I'm thrilled to announce that I recently got a Rep for my new screenplay "Raina." Hopefully, this is step one to realizing my dream of someday seeing one of my screenplays up on that elusive big silver screen!

Good morning, My name is Floyd Marshall Jr, CEO of Gazelle Films and founder of the Philadelphia Independent Film Awards, the first award show for indie filmmakers in Philadelphia. Been in the business a little over ten years. I've produced two stage plays, four films, written screenplays and basically just looking to remain busy, relevant, and an asset to others. I'm always looking to learn new ways of doing things, always open to new ideas and collaborations. It's a relationship business and I'm looking forward to building great relationships first which will hopefully segway into phenomenal projects. My award website is http://www.philadelphiaindependentfilmawards.com You can visit just to see what it is we're doing. And if you're a filmmaker in Philadelphia with an awesome film we'd love for you to submit it and hopefully we'll see you walking to the podium to receive best picture or actor honors. Pleasure seeing all of you and good luck in all your endeavors, present and future ones.

Hi Jane. I'm RB, Founder and CEO of Stage 32.
