Successful producer Robert Kosberg has never met anyone who didn’t have an idea. And this book will help you to learn how to find ideas, create ideas and pitch them to the right people. You’ll also learn what a high concept idea is and most importantly, how to get your ideas to the right people. Remember...you control the rights to your own ideas and that’s why ideas are so powerful. How to Sell Your Idea to Hollywood encourages people at all levels who are attempting to get their break in the business. It has everything you need to know to sell your ideas to the movies.
