I went out and pursued an A-list agent. Had a rep for being picky. He hip pockets me and doesn't sign me.
So I send agent script, he thinks its great. Still prefers not to sign me. I am still in the hip pocket zone.
Now, the script doesn't seem to move any producer/studio. So I decided to shop it around myself.
I nail two MAJOR production companies that have major studio deals and they are willing to have a read. The agent submits the script (we have a good relationship insofar as me being proactive and shopping around myself).
Now I am CC'd on all correspondence between prod company and "my agent". It's a good healthy and open relationship.
Has anyone done this and if so, could you tell me your experience and its outcome?
Thanks
