Submission

Refers to the process of presenting a project idea, screenplay, or creative material to a production company, studio, financier, agent, distributor or festival for consideration. This can include project submissions, such as film or TV scripts, and talent samples, like acting reels or writing portfolios. Submissions can be targeted towards specific projects on a company’s slate or for general interest, with the goal of securing development opportunities, roles, or representation. They are a crucial aspect of industry workflow, allowing creators and talent to showcase their work and potential collaborators to evaluate new content and talent.
