DOWNLOAD EBOOK"I liked it, didn't love it." It's the most often heard line in Hollywood."What happens to your screenplay or novel when it leaves your hands and is submitted to a studio, network or production company? What happens to it after it's optioned or sold? What does "in development" really mean? Rona Edwards and Monika Skerbelis shed light on all of those questions and more for those new to the business, and to those already journeying through the "storied" halls at a film studio, television network, or production company. They tackle how to find new ideas, what it takes to be a development exec or a story analyst, how to work with producers and writers, and tips for pitching.
