Getting past the reader: An interview with veteran script analyst Michael Schulman
In this conversation with Talentville CEO Ben Cahan, veteran script analyst & screenplay consultant Michael Schulman shares strategies for breaking into the industry as a screenwriter; how Netflix and other streamers have changed the playing field; and offers tips on honing your screenwriting craft to maximize your opportunities to get noticed.
Michael has done stints on three different studio lots as a top executive working with stars like Alec Baldwin and Dennis Quaid, and director Michael Mann for whom he oversaw creative development.
Ben Cahan is the CEO here at Talentville.com, working to build a community that allows aspiring screenwriters to network, learn and get valuable feedback for their screenplays before spending a king's ransom on competitions and expensive development services.
In addition, Ben was the creator & co-founder of Final Draft, the worldwide leader in screenwriting software for since the mid-1990s.
Michael Schulman was excellent and this was your best webinar that I've attended so far. I look forward to him coming back. I will certainly hire him to read and cover my scripts. :-)
