How to Beat the Odds of Getting Your Script Past the First Reader!

How to Beat the Odds of Getting Your Script Past the First Reader!
The reason the studios hire First Readers is to sort out the unmarketable scripts from the ones with the potential to become blockbuster hits.

The first reader's job is to report if your script is fresh or original. If it's not, it will not be recommended. That’s what it all boils down to - a recommendation or a pass. If they pass, that means no one further in that studio will read your script.

By revising your script to meet the studio's requirements before it gets to the First Reader you've made it possible for him to approve your script.
