I'm a new member to the group, an established comic-book author and graphic novelist, and I thought I would tell you about what I believe to be one of the most effective ways to market screenplays--which is what it's all about, right? I'm currently working with a handful of produced screenwriters (one has had over 16 television films on air), converting their screenplays (and in some cases treatments) into graphic novels. Hollywood is clearly enamored of GNs, and this is a sure-fire way to have your screenplay stand out in a vastly overcrowded field. Not only do I adapt the work, but I attach a "name" artist to the project (assuming the budget allows) and can even provide representation to pitch the project to both the publishing and film worlds, assuming you don't already have representation. I'm located on a studio lot and can only work with a few screenwriters at any given time, so feel free to respond with any questions you might have.
