Hi all,
New here and had 2 quick questions for those with experience submitting to representation, and getting a read...
First off, it seems some managers prefer getting query letters (via snail mail), but for other managers who have their e-mail addresses listed on IMDBPro (for example), is it safe to assume they'd prefer a query e-mail?
I've read Jewerl Ross' post here where he discusses why he prefers a letter, but he's his own man. Although I think there is something to be said for receiving a tangible letter, I guess I worry that at a bigger management firm, the assistant might toss it before it even gets where it's going...?
Secondly, I've heard it's imperative to use size 12 font in your script. Mine is about 118 pages at 12 font, but is 112 pages at 11 font. A friend once told me they're looking for any reason to toss your script into the 'no' pile, and even the wrong font size will do it.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
