Class > How to Sell A Screenplay
|
|
"I've always been mystified as to why (or how) anyone in their right mind would want to fall into the hole that has become the Internet in order to sell something as personal as a screenplay. But there is actually a logical step-by-step process one could follow in order to separate the wheat from the chaff. If you've been looking for another way in, Christopher Wehner has just opened the door."
Scott Frank, Screenwriter GET SHORTY, OUT OF SIGHT.
"Christopher Wehner has written the ultimate marketing guide for
screenwriters on the Internet. Writing a query letter, getting an agent,
soliciting production companies online… Chris covers it all in depth.
The agency guide and production company listings alone are worth far
more than the cost of the book."
Erik Bauer, Managing Editor Creative Screenwriting magazine.
Clients have sold and optioned screenplays. Chris' client D. Martin Watson has his first movie in the CAN!
