You don’t need every answer before a first conversation. You do need a clear starting point.
Start with the premise
Explain who the project follows, the world they inhabit, and why their story is worth returning to. A short, specific description is more useful at this stage than a lengthy document covering every possibility.
Be clear about access
For unscripted work, describe your relationship to the people or world involved. Separate access you already have from conversations you hope to begin. Do not share personal information about potential participants without permission.
Name the next step
A treatment, casting strategy, preliminary budget and sizzle plan solve different problems. Tell us what you have developed so far and where you need support. The initial scope should reflect the project’s actual stage.
Keep the first overview concise
Our inquiry form is designed for a high-level introduction. Please don’t submit confidential scripts, private third-party information or materials you do not control. Any further exchange of confidential material should follow an agreed process.
