Sending Out Preview Copies A company might request that you send them a tape of your project before the Market. We recommend that you don t do it. There s no guarantee that your tape will be seen, or seen by the right people. Instead, try to get that person to your screening. At the Market your project will be seen in a theater, with an industry audience.
Presentation is everything.
The excitement and energy at the Market is infectious and can work to your advantage. Build interest by building demand. Even if your project is in the Video Library it s best for it to be viewed at the Market while the heat is on. However, if you have a script in the Market and a company contacts you and requests a copy of the script you re better off sending it. Also, most production companies do not accept unsolicited screenplays, so if they ask for it, you're ahead of the game.
