Screenwriters have a unique challenge when it comes to getting noticed in the entertainment industry; after all, even the best screenplay won’t take off without the right publicity behind it. However, there are several steps you can take in order to increase your chances of success. Investing in yourself and your screenwriting craft through workshops, attending film festivals, and networking with fellow writers can provide opportunities for collaboration and connection that can potentially open doors. Once you've established a network of filmmakers who are familiar with your work, you may find that your scripts begin to get more attention from independent or Hollywood studio executives.
