own material. Working with an online Script Registry
service can only enhance your chance to much needed market
exposure.
The process is simple - create a logline and
synopsis and post both in an online data file. Many of the
registry services attract industry subscribers - producers,
directors and other industry executives. Give your spec
script the exposure it deserves - take advantage of the
Internet and visit one or more of the script registries
listed below.
