I've had two shorts produced and several others that are in production, post-production, or pre-production.

About half a dozen shorts in various stages of production, and 6 features in stages "in development" all the way through "post production", although I'm probably taking my name off of one of them.

Who do you think you are, Alan Moore?

i got one picked up...and i only got 3 shorts on here (im not the most creative person).

if you have any skill at all... your shorts are bound to get picked up by somebody.

whether they turn out any good or not however is completely another matter.

It was an assignment, so somewhat different than Alan Moore's situation.

I adapted a script I wrote in 2000 into a 20 minute short. It had its moments, but I know a lot more about writing now, so I cringe a little when I think about how cliched it was.

There's a little more to it than that.

I've had one short produced in animation, then had another guy work on another short, but had to quit because his paying gigs took too much of his time.

Has anyone used an agent? If so, what was your experience?

I honestly can't recall anyone on here having an agent.

Nope.  No agent.  I've pretty much went hunting for all the filmmakers, myself.

For those few who've sold feature length scripts, were those to studios and for decent pay or generally to indie people for next to nothing?
