Sending a script via email

I'm looking for production companies that accept scripts via email. All I have found so far is baby cow. Does anyone know of any others? It'll be great if anyone could let me know. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure Angle Eye do, and Above The Title. There will be more I think, but those two I'm quite certain of.

Baby Cow and Above the Title say on their web site that they accept stuff by email. That said, I've emailed them both with a synopsis and 10 pages (baby cow) and just a synopsis (above the title) but have heard nothing from either.

Anyone know how long they take to respond?

Above The Title have been a little slow with me before Steve, but responded after some gentle e-prodding from me.

Thanks Scott.

I'm about to mail them again soon, so I'll keep you posted. How long have you been waiting, just out of interest?

Baby cow took about four months to get back to me.

Baby Cow currently hold the record for response time to my scripts. They took eight months and even that was just to tell me that they weren't reading any new stuff at that time.

Hi Scott,
Hangs head in shame, only since last week. I did set the email to send a read receipt but I've not had one. I sent it to the email address on the web which was a general one, headed for the attention of the person the site said. Is that what you do or have you got a direct email address?

Yeah, the general email was ok for me Steve. A week isn't a long time, though. I'm really time conscious and used to get wound-up after short waits but I've got a bit more relaxed and I'm happier (as a writer/submitter at least!) as a result. Something SlagA mentioned once is about having different projects on the go and this helps me a lot. If a prodco doesn't get back to me immediately, I look upon it as an opportunity to crack on with the newer project. Works for me, but people have different ideas don't they?

I agree Scott. I've sent one thing to Baby Cow, something else to Above The Title and am working on another project now. Will just have to wait.

FYI, I'm waiting to hear back from Above The Title about a synopsis I sent yesterday. Race you!
