Re: New Black List Thread - Franklin Leonard answers your questions
If my script hasn't been sent for an evaluation yet, but there's one 'reader download,' then what's a reader download?

Hey Franklin,
I had quick question for you about the Friday emails. In a previous thread about the BlackList, you made the following post:

Thanks,

I'm thinking Cecily Tyson for the female lead.

That's not exactly opening the floodgates. Instead of nit-picking, let's hope it's so wildly successful all the other studios get with the program.

Liars tend to reveal themselves. They're usually not as smart as they think they are -- broadcasting their schemes on FB. Hm. Yeah, nobody will be scrutinizing this program or anything. Certainly not the jealous contemporaries of the would-be fraud.
Believing everyone else is stupid is typically part of the problem with this type of character.

If you think you qualify as diverse (based on enthnicity/gender/age) you apply for the program. Presumably you make the case for your diversity in your personal statement if you're short-listed.
I guess there's the risk that someone would CLAIM diversity and then show up for the first meeting at Warner as a 28-year-old white guy. Maybe he could claim he was a woman when he applied?

I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere.
