===== Here’s where strategy counts more than the script alone: =====
# Get it into the right hands first. → Target boutique agencies like CAA, UTA, or management firms (e.g., 3 Arts, Anonymous Content). → Pitch with a killer logline, deck, and possibly a short concept teaser (visual proof of tone).
# Submit to top-tier competitions. → Nicholl, Sundance Lab, Austin, Slamdance — not just for credibility, but to trigger reads from agents and producers. → A Nicholl semifinalist script can spark multiple offers overnight.
# Director or Producer Attachment. → A rising indie director or festival darling reading this and going “this is my next film” could ignite a scramble.
# Buzz. → A tweet thread from a respected screenwriter, a viral logline, or even a short film adaptation can launch your name into rooms you couldn’t cold-email your way into.
