Tips for Pitching a Book for Film Adaptation - podcast

Think your book would make a great movie? Jared and Julia Drake, of Julia Drake Public Relations, give tips on pitching a book for film adaptation. Don't assume that agents or producers will know what the movie pitch is from your book. There's a lot of wiggle room within a book. To have a successful movie pitch, you must take the guessing game out of what the movie will be and show them your vision. Once you have a well-defined pitch, you also need a script. The Drakes also suggest preparing a look book, which is a short, easy to browse book that uses images, visually defines the characters, and gives a sense of the overall tone of the movie.
