Introduce Yourself : Screenwriter/Director by Darshan Jaju

Darshan Jaju

Screenwriter/Director

Hello, everyone. My name is Darshan Jaju and I am from India. I have been self studying screenwriting for the last 3 years and have written 2 feature scripts and 3 short stories. I recently completed a feature script and now looking to hire an agent or a manger to represent my script. Could anyone please suggest me how can I hire an agent in Hollywood to get my script represented? That would be a great help, thank you.

Welcome to the community, Darshan Jaju. There are agents on Stage 32 you can build relationships/network with. Check out the Browse Members Section (www.stage32.com/people?name=&location=&roles=Agent).

And I suggest being active in the Lounges (www.stage32.com/lounge) by making posts, asking questions, commenting on people's posts, and getting to know people. You could catch the eye of an agent or manager.

Stage 32 contests are a great way to get meetings with agents, managers, and other industry pros: www.stage32.com/scriptservices/contests

You can pitch your scripts to managers through Stage 32's Pitch Sessions (www.stage32.com/scriptservices/pitch-sessions). The sessions are mainly for practice to get your pitch in the best shape, but writers have been signed by managers through the sessions (www.stage32.com/scriptservices/success-stories).

You can also search for agents and managers on IMDBPro (https://pro.imdb.com/signup/index.html?u=http%3A%2F%2Fpro.imdb.com%2F).

Welcome to Stage 32 Darshan Jaju - glad you're with us. Maurice hit on an important point which was to be active in the lounges. I can't recommend that enough as this is a business built on relationships. All the best to you!

Hello Darshan! Here is an awesome video from our CEO Richard "RB" Botto on how you can get to a manager or agent to pitch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCP7s6Zz88c&t=3s. I'd highly recommend you follow him on instagram, as he gives great advice - @rbwalksintoabar.
