Hi DD Pro's,
New-ish but not entirely green writer/creator, here.
So, I recently had a Limited Series that was being championed by a development executive within one of the big five studios. This executive was just moved by her boss to work on developing Features, instead, and let my manager know that, as a result, she can no longer work on our LS.
My question is this: If this exec loved the project so much, why can't she hand it off to someone she trusts, within that LS department? Maybe to insiders this seems like a no-brainer, but to someone for whom this would have been my first official "deal" I'm confused. I realize I could ask my manager, but she's already out pitching it to ten other places, so I don't want to dwell on this one opportunity (or, sound dumb). Help!
