Whoever you write to will most likely want to read a full script. I’d recommend having 2 full scripts in your arsenal. I like to read a couple of samples, particularly when considering someone new. Share the work you are most proud of. If you’ve had a short produced, send a link.

📚🎙️🎭 Read and listen to as much as you can. So much of Film & TV is based on IP these days (books, podcasts, plays etc). Have you read/listened to something you think could work well for screen? Think about why…

The most exciting thing for me at Christmas growing up was not circling stuff I wanted in the Argos catalogue, but circling all the stuff I wanted to watch over the festive period in @RadioTimes 🎄Did anyone else do that?!

We FINALLY get to celebrate ‘Hallow Road’ by the colossal talent that is William Gillies. Couldn’t be prouder to see this script come to fruition with such an incredible cast and director at the helm. Will wrote this script whilst a student at the NFTS. Watch this space… 🔥🔥

You can also try and form relationships with development producers, development assistants. I’ve signed a few clients on the back of producer recommendations so the two can often go hand in hand. Find out who makes the shows you like. Some places might not accept unsolicited work

I was asked how creatively involved agents are in their clients’ work. Every agent is different. It’s like a spectrum with business minded agents at one end & creative minded agents at the other. There is no 1 size fits all which is why it’s key to find the right fit for you ☺️
