  1. Does anyone know the rate/ratio of success on the "featured" Black List scripts? Curious to know if any writers have sold or been commissioned off this extra push.

      Found David Winkler as a producer via the Black List for the Controller.

      Yeah, I would love to know who on this board has gotten representation off of the Black list. I'm considering uploading my projects, but I don't know if it's a great idea since too much exposure can be a bad thing...thoughts?

  2. Question for the legal minded members: Why would Lauren Weisberger's (presumed) confidentiality agreement with Anna Wintour/Vogue not have prevented The Devil Wears Prada from being published? And if not, of what use was the agreement (or any other such executive/assistant/intern confidentiality agreement)?

      Depends on the agreement, basically.

       

      Most will not allow any memoir-type book, article, etc. be written. However, most don't specifically prohibit a fictionalized account. In fact, that language would be very unusual.

       

      Most standard employee confidentiality agreements address mostly maintaining the secrecy and confidentiality of any confidential business information, not how the boss treats the underlings.

      Maybe the publisher's lawyers felt confident classifying the book as satire and/or were comfortable believing the author's claims that the character(s) were based on an amalgamation of numerous real life characters.

  3. ISO: Guardians of the Galaxy -- Can't believe there isn't already an ISO for this...

      Marvel scripts don't leak...

      It surely won't leak, but I wonder if the studio might include it as part of a home video/book release.

  4. Curious if anyone here ever attends the free BlackList mixers in LA at the Umbrella Company? Anyone planning to attend the July 6th one?

      I'm heading out there

  5. Congrats to Peter Limm for his TB Recommends. If anyone has The Ardenworth Files I would love to read. Please PM me.

      Same here. Send me a PM if you have The Ardenworth Files.

       

      Congrats to Peter!

  6. Anyone have any experience with www.talentville.com? I assume this is another service similar to The Black List?

      Don't bother with Talentville. I gave reads and review there and I got my ass handed to me. Stay away.

  7. I'm looking for a great one-sheet. I know we have a thread for treatments and bibles, but does anyone have a really great one-sheet template? P&T

  10. Is there anyone who has experience uploading multiple voices into Final Draft for use in the read back feature? I've tried the ways suggested online and it seems there's no cut and dry method. Any help?

  11. For no particular reason, I just uploaded a biopic script I wrote a few years back into the "Works In Progress" category. The title is "The Wife & Death of Hank Williams Sr." and the script centers around Hanks wife and manager, Audrey Mae Sheppard. Further explanation is in the thread.

  12. Can anyone explain why my Final Draft (8.0) saves scripts as nearly 2MB PDF's? They should be 350KB at most. Any help?

  13. Anyone else make it into Nicholl quarterfinals?
