Frage von Rainer L.:
Hello specialists!
I am a sideline-author novel writing and only hobby. Nevertheless, I have in recent years, a few science fiction novels can post. In order to improve my skills and because it's more fun, I now have a thriller / mystery written (Theme: serial killers in Cologne). The manuscript I sent s.diverse and publishers in a fit of high spirits synonymous s.Filmproduktionsfirmen.
So far, so good. Well last week I was the boss of my knowledge, very reputable film company in Munich called and said that it with a cinematic transposition of the novel very, very good would look like. This question is should I write a script, then you could do business.
So much praise by vocation I am talking of course, but I have in my life yet not a single written script. That's why I have in recent weeks as much as possible in this issue read (Syd Field, etc., Internet ...), also I had to write the novel, the movie in your head. Whether this will ultimately but to the satisfaction of a professional fails, I do not know. I therefore consider whether or not someone use the script, if it is ready to form and content to examine me and could possibly give hints.
Sun, and this is exactly the question I would like here. Is there someone who has the trust or has already done? Over a bonus of course, one could talk.
At the moment I am still in the process, the novel manuscript into a script rewrite. This is still a few weeks, but I'm confident it's ready to get. If I get insecure when it comes to quality, I would to us want to go.
Many greetings from the Schwabenland

Only thou shalt write, and when it is finished, THEN to get into the business?
What an asshole.

What an asshole. Haha :-)
Maybe you're right. But I see at the moment still quite loose. I learn the script-writing so again something new that is of itself not a mistake. And since I do not live by the letter, but it is currently paid only as a hobby look, so I invest the couple of weeks and write the thing done. If the script well received and realized, I am pleased, if not, does the anger within bounds. I would, however, admittedly difficult, now a pile of money for a contract writer to invest and hope to have it like the production company. Hence the idea with the bonus that would be a more acceptable option.

Antwort von BillBo:
Hello Rainer,
yes that sounds really great. But I would still be careful whom you have your script in advance and not show s.jede posted on the internet email address.
To form the network's enough - the content you have already!
much success, and keep us up to date as it goes:)

Sure, the form I have a lot - in theory. It would be but certainly not a mistake, if someone who knows thus, the part before the closing times across could have read as I said, little or no experience with it.

Antwort von BillBo:
That is, unfortunately.
And if he is not satisfied, you have to rewrite it.
finally you use so many months and shreibst and write s.ende and maybe you'll see nothing, because the project is again uninteresting.
or little, because it is a cheap production.
or in the worst instance of the book is rewritten and someone you never hear of them again, even though it was your idea
good luck if you have the type of good mood and it really comes to business ...

Yes, of such cases I heard synonymous ...
good luck if you have the type of good mood and it really comes to business ... He is still the boss of the shop, and they make very sophisticated Produtionen for ZDF, SAT1, Arte, etc. A certain hope of honesty, I have also.
Antwort von beiti:
I s.Deiner body would, in this case is still nothing to write, if the producer you do not even a preliminary contract has been made. That would be the least. For 80% of the screenplays for the creation times it has signed a contract, is not a film s.Ende anyway, because the producer confidence in the substance loses, the film does not get funded, etc. Therefore, screenwriters contracts always contain exit clauses for the producers, so that the worst the rates paid by then will lose (eg the first 1500 euro for Exposé).
If you are a producer interested s.einem has substance to which it is not yet a script, usually buys an option, ie, the author provides the substance for a certain period of time not s.andere producer next to the one who has the option to for or against choice. How well the chances of success for projects looking to the producers not even an option (about 3000 Euro for 1 year; is possibly up fees into account) are worth it you myself.
Ask a look to see if it an option to buy the stuff (for my sake synonymous for 2000 euros, mainly about money). Then you'll see how serious he thinks.
Or turn you on

That's what I call an informed response times.

Antwort von regisseur:
Dear Rainer,
studied the aspects you are looking for. I see a producer and director.
As I would suggest you consider writing in English and co-author the
story. All you need is a story. The story is without dialogue or if you need
to be more extensive, with dialog. I would go the extra mile for you :-)
The film business has a number of film makers who have the ability to
produce and direct and write, so of course. A producer who isn ta
filmmaker usually but not always, is no filmmaker. And besides,
Rainer, whats your e mail?
Take care and perhaps you will be well served learning the writing and
filmmaking process, ie in time, that is if you like to learn, I teach you
and if you like the results of our collaboration, well then, go for it!
Please send me the e mail in the name of the producer contacted you
and I ll see what I can do to help :-).
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Director
