Screenwriter Launches Website to Document his Efforts to Turn an Empty Journal Into a Million Dollar Movie Deal in Just One Year

Screenwriter Andrew A. launches http://www.milliondollarmoviedeal.com for aspiring filmmakers. Via an online diary he will document his audacious quest to turn one empty notebook, into one 'hot' movie script, and sell it within one year, for one million dollars.

London, England (PRWEB) April 2, 2006 -- Aspiring screenwriter Andrew A. unable to find a production company willing to read a script from anyone outside the cliquey British film industry; has taken his career into his own hands. He has launched a website for budding filmmakers, Million Dollar Movie Deal.com. http://www.milliondollarmoviedeal.com. It offers practical advice and shares details of his own experiences as a neophyte screenwriter. On it he has also made a very public vow; to take on a ‘quest’ to write a movie script from scratch, deliver it into the hands of Hollywood executives, and then sell it for one million dollars, all within the space of a year.

“All I’ve ever wanted to do is tell stories through film” protest Andrew. “Confoundingly, most of the production companies in Britain have refused to even read any of my scripts unless they come with a personal recommendation from an industry-insider. This is a real shame because, like me, there are many other fledgling filmmakers who’ve got something special to share but there’s just no way to get a foot in the door.”
Hopeful that he can buck the trend within just one year, the website Million Dollar Movie Deal.com, comes complete with a timer that will countdown from the 1st April 2006 until the 1st April 2007. In this time he will attend classes, seminars, and film festivals such as Cannes in France. Anything that will aid his chances of achieving his target.

All his efforts will be documented in an online diary. “Its not just my diary its also the diary of my script. From its birth upwards, its teething problems, its growing pains, until it finally reaches maturity. In this way I can document my successes -and failures. Hopefully other aspiring screenwriters and filmmakers can learn from them.”

Having visited students attending universities with film schools and other film training courses to discuss the difficulties of entering the industry, Andrew has received many messages of support. “Everybody has been very positive, I already have over 3500 people who have visited the website to request my first newsletter -and that’s even before it officially launched. What’s compelling to visitors is that I can vicariously live out the shared dream of breaking into Hollywood.”

Visitor numbers to Million Dollar Movie Deal.com http://www.milliondollarmoviedeal.com are set to grow further as advertisements promoting the site will be appearing in the UK’s pre-eminent movie magazines.

The website also offers advertisers the opportunity to effectively promote their business on a pixel-advertising grid created especially for introducing products and services to visitors who have a passion for movies, filmmaking, Hollywood, showbiz, entertainment and life!
Any revenue generated will be used to fund Andrew’s journey to Hollywood.

“I don’t want any special favours. I’ve got a terrific high-concept story I want to share. Ultimately I just want a Hollywood decision maker to read the finished script. I can’t ask for more than that.’

The Million Dollar Movie Deal.com website launched on the 1st April 2006. You can keep track of Andrew’s progress by reading his online diary, or subscribing to the newsletter at http://www.milliondollarmoviedeal.com. Film-industry advertisers may also enquire about promotional opportunities.
