After writing a screenplay, the next step would be to revise and edit it for clarity, structure, and coherence. Feedback from trusted sources such as fellow writers, script consultants, or industry professionals can help strengthen the script. Once it's polished, you can then start pitching it to agents, producers, or enter it into screenwriting competitions.
Once you have written, edited and copywrited your screenplay, you can safely sent it out into the world. Whether you would like to find a production company to make a film from the screenplay or an agent or manager to sell your screenplay, you must have a query letter. To write a basic query letter, include the title, logline and a short synopsis of your screenplay, and any relevant information about yourself in the letter. Then, start sending queries out to production companies, agents or managers to ask if they would be willing to read your screenplay.
