Instructions

1

Locate a producer that can help with exactly what you're looking for. Many producers have particular markets they specialize in, such as independent films, specific genres or direct-to-DVD. Finding a producer who will be interested in what you have to offer is key.
2

Locate the producer's contact information. The producer will most likely have offices where he can be contacted. Searching online is an easy way to locate this information.
3

Send an email to the producer detailing why you're contacting him. Give the producer at least a week to respond before following up.
4

Mail the producer a script. If you're a writer, you can mail your script, along with a letter, to the office. A hard copy script is good because it gives the producer the opportunity to read it at his convenience.
5

Call the office. This is the hardest way to contact a producer, but it is still worth a try. Call early or late in the day. Most producers' schedules take them out of the office during the middle of the day.
