For Literary Talent

For the people shaping what actually gets made next.

Literary representation at MAM is for directors, writers, and producers with a real voice, credits worth pointing to, and a clear next move on the slate. You get packaging support, sharper positioning, and a long partnership, not a rolling list of names on a website.

What this path is about

Voice needs strategy long before it needs noise.

Best fit for MAM

Credited, voice-led, and looking down the slate.

  • Directors, writers, or producers with an IMDb profile and a recognisable track record on screen.
  • Production credits, festival selections, or awards, or a screenplay or packaged project of standout quality.
  • A clear sense of the next twelve to twenty-four months of work, and what you want commissioning from it.
  • Open to a long-term working partnership, not a one-off listing.

Probably not a fit yet

Better suited elsewhere if…

  • You don’t yet have a sample of work you’d put in front of a paying buyer.
  • You’re only looking for a single transactional sale, not ongoing representation.
  • You want sole credit and final say on every creative decision, including the agent’s.

If you’re a multi-hyphenate, lead with the discipline closest to where the next year of work will come from, and mention the others in your note.

What to send

Five things that make voice and trajectory easy to see.

A focused application is easier to act on than a general one. Lead with these.

  1. IMDb link or a comparable credits page.
  2. One sample of work a screenplay, a packaged project, or a finished film/TV product we can watch end-to-end.
  3. Production credits, festival selections, or awards.
  4. A short note on what you’re developing now, and where you want the next year of work to come from.
  5. Whether you’re seeking representation for a single project or as a long-term client.

Multi-hyphenate? Lead with the discipline driving the next year of work, mention the others in the note.

What happens after you apply

From submission to a working partnership.

  1. 01

    We read your application and your sample.

    Within four to ten working days. Read by an agent, not a filter. We’ll work through your script, your reel, or your packaged project before we form an opinion.

  2. 02

    First conversation.

    If the interest is mutual, you’ll be invited to a one-hour call or in-person meeting, so we can understand the slate you’re trying to build, not just the next project on it.

  3. 03

    Onboarding & the packaging plan.

    Positioning agreed, materials reviewed, introductions mapped, and the packaging routes for your next project agreed. Contracts get signed at this stage, never before.
