Every year, Hollywood receives tens of thousands of scripts — but only a small fraction get read, and even fewer get produced. Why? Because many aspiring writers make avoidable mistakes that immediately lower their chances.

Some of the most common include:

1. Submitting first drafts. Great ideas are ruined by sloppy execution. Industry readers can spot an unpolished draft within minutes.
2. Ignoring the market. A story may be brilliant, but if it’s not in line with what buyers want, it won’t move forward.
3. Overwriting. Pacing is everything in screenwriting. Long, drawn-out scripts often lose readers before Act 2.
4. Lack of feedback. Too many writers work in isolation, never seeking outside perspective until it’s too late.

The fix? Treat your script like a professional calling card. Workshop it, refine it, and polish it until it’s undeniable. Know your audience — both the viewers you’re writing for and the executives you’re pitching to.

At Longitude Entertainment, we specialize in helping writers avoid these pitfalls. With personalized feedback and insider insights, we make sure your script stands out in the crowded marketplace.

Don’t let rookie mistakes hold you back. A polished script can change everything.
