Whether it’s a pandemic, cultural changes, similar projects getting set up, or just the mood of the Industry, every TV or Film writer has screenplays that haven’t sold for one reason or another. Well, as we know, times change and so do the flavors of our Industry. For those screenplays that have collected digital dust, or even the new ones, now’s the opportunity to showcase them all on First Look and let the world see what you’ve got waiting for them! Ignite Your Success: Discover unparalleled opportunities and take your screenwriting career to new heights.

Agents and Managers only have so much time in a day to push your material forward and they certainly don’t know what everyone’s looking for. First Look is a tool to enhance the ability to showcase all your material to anyone interested. You no longer need to depend on word of mouth to get your material looked at.

Reach industry professionals, producers, and directors from every corner of the globe. Your talent deserves a global stage, and we provide the spotlight.

Like the Guild, our platform time stamps the name, date, and business of anyone who accesses your material. All identities are verified. If the buyer is interested, they contact the reps to discuss the project, so it goes through normal channels. If you’re without a rep, First Look has a list of lawyers you can connect with who would be happy to make a deal for you. But also, First Look is a great way to get an agent or manager, as they’ll be perusing materials looking for new clients.

Connect with fellow screenwriters and industry insiders. Collaboration and networking are the fuel for success in the world of filmmaking. Even if you’re without reps, it gives you that opportunity to post your spec.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.
