Alison McMahan signs with Manager Alexia Melocchi of Little Studio Films
Tuesday, January 24, 2012 - 9:08pm
This is one of those blogs every writer waits years to write. I’m pleased to announce that I am now represented by literary manager Alexia Melocchi of Little Studio Films. Melocchi and I have signed a one year contract, and she is working hard at getting my three most marketable scripts, Imprinted, Destroying Angel, and Girl in Trunk, into the right hands.
Many of my friends have asked me how I managed to get to this point, so I thought a little summary would be in order. We all know that the two key steps to a writing career, is first, write well, and the second is to have people who can help you sell what you write. For the last two years I’ve been focusing almost exclusively on the first step, honing screenwriting skills I’d developed as a playwrighting major at Catholic University, in the graduate film program at New York University, taking courses with John Truby, and reading numerous books by other screenwriting gurus. In the last two years I polished my skills by taking screenwriting courses at ScreenwritingU. Hal Croesmun’s courses help writers focus on specific techniques that address big picture issues and improve the telling detail. Most of all he gets us to professionalize, by training us to market our projects and to learn to address the needs of our target audience: the producers that will option our scripts or hire us for projects of their own.

Should Screenwriters go to the American Film Market?
Monday, December 12, 2011 - 1:50pm
I went to the American Film Market with my documentary, Bare Hands and Wooden Limbs, in search of a distributor. But I also had a burning question on my mind: is a film market like AFM a place for a writer, especially a writer without representation and without a package in development?
In the end I decided that AFM is not a place for writers who are hoping to find representation or a producer. If you are in that situation a pitchfest might be a better place, or going to festivals where your script has placed well in a contest. But if you are a writer AND a producer putting together a package or get some pre-sales from foreign territories, then AFM is the place for you. And keep in mind that you don’t actually have to attend AFM to benefit from it.
