BWTV: Lesson 1: How To Get 50 Script Requests

[Lloyd Shellenberger]

Lloyd loves Getting 50 Script requests

What I learned from this assignment is you’re still on your own to get agents and managers as well as producers to talk to you.

Working hard every day to become the best writer I can be and as a result I do become the best writer in Hollywood.

I have already started. I am buying LA 411 I have taken my BWTV series Benjamin Greene and Letters from Baghdad and pitched it to several producers. I have a pitch meeting next week and plan on going to Vegas early 2024 to a writer’s conference to sign an agent. This is by far the hardest part of the whole course as there is no clear path or list of agents and producers.

ASSIGNMENT

1 . Give us your Genre, Title, and Concept.

DRAMA / SUSPENSE

The ONE THAT GOT AWAY – A Fisherman’s Tale

A fisherman is determined to catch the fish he blames for his younger brother’s death, however, in the end, it turns out the fisherman is the one who had gotten away.

2. In one or two sentences, tell us what you think is most attractive about your story.

This is a Fisherman’s Tale that encompasses many of the wonderful things about fishing. As a fisherman fishes he reminisces about his father, his brother and why he’s fishing now; what started out as fun has turned to revenge with a twist in the end. Who knew catfish grew so BIG!

3. Tell us which you will target FIRST — managers, producers, or actor’s production company — and why you picked that target.

Management companies who produce

Small producers who are connected to any of the above
Indie producers

This is a “artsy” movie that has everything to do with cinematography on a low-budget and I figure these are the people most likely capable of making that style of movie.
