ScreenplayAdaptation
If you’re really serious about seeing your book on the screen, take the first step to production by having a professional screenplay written for your book with the Screenplay Adaptation service.
A Screenplay is a fully developed script that television and movie producers can use to determine if an adaptation of your book is something they want to produce. With a professionally adapted screenplay, you will let Hollywood know you’re serious about breaking into the entertainment business. Your screenwriter will expand upon the Treatment of your book to write the full, completed script adaptation of your book, either for film, television, or new media adaptation. The Screenplay will be written in Hollywood-standard format, adhering to all of the correct conventions and formatting used for screenwriting in Hollywood.
Once your Hollywood Screenplay is complete, we will submit it to our first-look Hollywood partner, 5 More Minutes, who will review your work as a potential adaptation for film and television. 5 More Minutes is a full-service production company run by veteran Hollywood executive John Saachi. Their ongoing projects include the film adaptations of the New York Times best selling books, Dork Diaries and Rogues Gallery.
