In recent years, agents, managers and producers inundated with material by unknown writers have begun relying on industry referrals more and more when seeking out new talent. Because anyone can purchase screenwriting software and term themselves a screenwriter, it has become near impossible for entertainment professionals to identify the quality writers in an over-populated profession. Therefore, many agents, managers and producers now turn to Scriptshark for the discovery of fresh, exciting literary talent.

Utilizing our years of industry experience and the discerning insight provided through our coverage services, Scriptshark searches its incoming screenplays, manuscripts and teleplays to identify promising new voices whose work we then introduce to industry executives. Writers discovered through Scriptshark have gone on to be signed by agents and managers, sell scripts and pitches, and have their movies produced with the participation of A-List talent. Our reputation for a sharp eye and uncompromising material has solidified our status through the years, and allows us to work with some of the most exciting new-talent agents and managers in town.

Because of our determination to maintain our integrity both to the writer and the industry executives who count on us, Scriptshark’s scouting services are free of charge and can not be purchased. The only way for a writer to qualify for Scriptshark’s renowned scouting services is to write a focused, original and exceptionally executed screenplay, which receives a qualifying ranking through our coverage service. A qualifying screenplay must receive the ranking of CONSIDER W/ RESERVTIONS or above.

Once a screenplay qualifies for scouting, the writer is contacted by Scriptshark, a resume of the writer’s work is composed, and, based on industry climate, genre, and tone, the writer’s work is scouted to potentially suitable agents and managers. Some of the companies Scriptshark scouts its writers to include:

Benderspink
