Loved the remakes of Harbinger, Bloodshot, and man o war

I queried JZ twice. This is helpful, now I won't do it again. My fear is that I didn't do it the right way. Can't find a manager yet. Very disheartening. Plus, I did place in about 10 competitions and won some awards, so a whole bunch of random people thought it was good. Sadly you just have to make the right connection, that one right connection. This is the reality. Not giving up yet. Best luck to all.

Doomsday Clock is the sequel to watchmen. How was this video 12 years ago & I’m the first person to leave a comic.

I would like to know you more if that's ok with you Larry andries you don't have nothing to worry about when it comes to me I can relate to what you are going through I like what you like and I think you look good babe.

"American History X" is one of the greatest films of all time. A timeless masterpiece. Edward Norton should have won the Oscar that year. Thank you for this.

“Play well with others.” I hope that lesson serves you well in prison.

I knew this would be his voice. 😅😂

I hope people have found this with his charges. So many things for young writers to learn with this in context. READ everything. Always.

This freak was a camp counselor, A known GRAPIST WALKING AROUND SODOMIZING HETEROSEXUAL MEN

He is well spoken and sounds decent. One would never suspect, just like Bill Crosby. Why not get with another gay man to be with as your lover, why would you rape a heterosexual man? Who gives you the right to do what you did. And 12 years is not a just sentence and in a male prison. He needs to be in a prison for tough women, otherwise he is just going to Disneyland!! He was a good actor, he hid the monster that he really was!! i hope others will be brave enough to come forward so that he never gets out of prison. He has to pay for all his crimes!!!

Shapeshifting accent

everything he's advising here is a grooming tactive & manipulation i'd say

The only way to actually have your script looked at is to look at it like a project and begin to develop it yourself. Take what you have, which might be a trailer, and get to AFM and meet independent producer who need original content.

You got to watch your ass in Hollywood.

What a dirtbag

Sicko

Evil man 🤮

Rapist!!!

🙁

I guess I will need a WORM MOBILE TO TRAVEL THRU TIME ……..CORRECT?

It seems like these industry people depend on referrals because they can't tell what is good or bad on their own.

This interview is the SECRET to immersing one's self in a writing career. I needed to hear this. This is what I want to do when I grow up and you made it less daunting.

When he says "do those 5 pages" does he mean like comic book pages or just the script?

Thank you for interview.

Thank you! Very interesting!

Robert Kirkman is such a legend

I wish these interviews weren't SO LONG. Cut it by half and you'd have more views.

I love ted Sullivan

Hey! I was one of the friend that saw movies with you in the summer! Well done Ryan, great to see you succeeding!

Wow! Great film!!!

Lost interest as soon as he mentioned vaccines.

Thank you for taking the time to share this incredible information!

great interview. learned so much.❤

Very good "Sam Esmail framing" on Jennifer, Mr. Robot style. Lots of space above her head.

Thank you Noga and Kevin. It was educational and entertaining.

Great guest.

On building a community with other writers: "This is such a lonely, lonely, lonely profession. Don't be alone." --Noga Pnueli

'Thanks'... positive thoughts, cutting through the clutter of so many alternatives, when impatient people want results now.

This was amazing! I have a script sitting at HVE right now with one of Chris' colleagues. Seems like such an amazing place to be repped. Fingers crossed.

It ain't easy getting Lee to read your script!!!!!!!!!

Great show. The guests really brought it. A lot of good information here. Kevin, you made the open invitation for us to leave comments on what we would like to see on the show. I think most writers on reddit or on the various forums like Done Deal seem obsessed with the topic of getting representation; keeping a good relationship with representation and how to launch their career. Even the repped writers I know seem to have a lot of false stars and have to restart the search many times. I think most of the viewers probably were drawn to your site by a random google search for the topic that led them here. Or another commenter who recommended they check out your interviews. Why not double down on that? Listeners most want to hear from reps, but more specifically "Managers." Maybe, have a webinar with intensive focus on the subject Label it "Superstar Managers." If there's a time constraint, I would probably take out the section on what the reps like in their personal life--while it's interesting, it sometimes takes 5-10 minutes of valuable time away from questions listeners really want to hear. Also, listeners do not mind seeing the same managers multiple times. In fact, they kind of become like rock stars with each successive appearance. Kind of like certain guests appear on the Tonight Show often, they become a brand. So, in other words, "managers, managers, managers."

I just recently discovered this great channel. What a great interview! Very informative. I've always looked at screenplays as instructions disguised with poetry. In practical terms a screenplay is basically a long, step by step set of instructions for others to follow, but we try to cloak these instructions with poetic writing.

Marvelous! Let’s be friends?

That’s brilliant! Let’s stay in touch :)

What an amazing interview! Thank you for all your insights! I really enjoyed it!

Hi all! What happened to the S&S community on discord? Just went on there after ages, and its dead! Did everyone move elsewhere? Sorry if i missed the info regarding this!

This is great, thanks Steven Maeda!!
