Hey There. Great site, appreciate the effort. Wanted to get feedback from the more experienced users here.
What are your thoughts about Atlanta's screenwriting scene? We all see that the city's popularity in production is growing, which undoubtedly provides great opportunity for crew members, especially with experience. However, I've yet to see a place where local screenwriters fit in, aside from Indie projects.
Recently, I was approached by a local ProdCo that expressed a desire mine talent locally for all of their projects. I was disheartened to hear they ultimately turned to L.A. agencies to find scripts.
