What do Producers even do?? Strangely enough, most writers don’t understand what this most essential job entails – and how they can better partner with their new boss (or even consider producing themselves!). This relationship starts on the page – your script has to be “produceable.” Understanding what producers are looking for at every budget level helps you deliver a script that can sell – and get to the screen.
