Book Description
Anyone who has a great idea for a movie or a TV show shouldn't miss reading this book. Two successful movie and TV producers provide the reader with the tools he needs to create, develop and sell ideas to Hollywood. Learn: What makes an idea a good one. • How to find or create a good idea. • How to develop a "high concept". • What ideas should be avoided. • What goes into a good pitch. • How long a pitch should be. • How to find the right people to pitch. • What to say when you contact them. • How to protect your idea. • How to "package" an idea with writers and actors. • Necessary writing treatments. • When it is better to have a screenplay. • How pitching a movie differs from pitching a TV show.
