Selling A Screenplay Online To The Hollywood Market. by andrewdg(m): 12:07pm On Feb 14, 2012 |
Dear nairalanders, i want to know if anyone in here has successfully sold any of his/her script to Hollywood companies before. And of course doing it online. In my neighborhood a banker was offered 11 million naira for her screenplay. she advised me to stop dealing with the nollywood industry and aim where the real thing is. Though she gave me some websites to visit but i want to also hear the opinions of my family(nairalanders). Please if u have useful information please post it. I appreciate. 1 Like |

Your best option is to have her recommend you to producers when she is produced. Also check out her screenplays to know what she how she writes. Wish I could read one of her screenplays. A second option, register for international screenplay competitions. Agents listen to you more when you do well in such competitions. Then try the query letters. It doesn't work magic but works sometimes. |

What kinda screenplays do you write? Google sites you can download classic screenplays. Just read them and you'll get an idea of how to write one. Nichol, Zoetrope, Big Break are all international screenwriting competitions. Also google and check out their sites. Any other help, you can always reply. Will try and reply asap. |
