You write shyt breh? How deep are you (pause) and do you have any connections for knowledge and format information?
Ha, I write but not as often as I should.
I'm terrible... been sitting on ideas, treatments, and half-written scripts for a minute.
Knowledge? The best advice has always been to write every day. Read.
Some good youtube channels on screenwriting:

You wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I got about 14 different projects that started from basic ideas, I have put full movies and tv shows together on a scene to scene type of thing, no dialogue.
Just a full story summary, and the break down of how the story plays out.
I believe I have enough work done to profit big off these ideas, especially with the attention to detail I wrote with. But I don't want to do dialogue, AT ALL.
I want to be able to present these ideas to a company and have a writing team hired to put it together.
I have no idea how to go about doing this correctly on paper so I can copyright it before promoting it to movie companies.
Covid had cancelled the Hollywood Movie Pitch 5 day festival where you can sit down with different companies and present your ideas.
I want to have my portfolio finished by next year, it should return next July, always the first week of July somewhere in Hollywood. 500$ per day though

Good looking on the info too bro I appreciate it
I'm really really good at this shyt dawg.
If I was to post my ideas y'all nikkas would really want to support my grind.
I gotta get outta this hood nikka comfort zone and just chase this shyt. I wanna hit Cali for a whole month to be honest. But I got so much family in Atlanta I might need to go there first on some business shyt.
Honestly, you sound like a producer, a Will Packer type cat.
Out of those good ideas/projects that you have, pick one that's the most practical. Gotta get a buzz
Get a little crew together and shoot it. Maybe start off doing shorts to get a vibe of production then get a little more ambitious.
You a Detroit breh? Look at your folks with all those flicks on Amazon Prime.
That cat Murda Pain is like the Denzel of flicks up there.
You could eat in ATL. You'd probably have to turn ppl away if you tries shooting something

Yes the more I hear the more I'm thinking I should just write a couple short stories and shoot them myself to get some hand on shyt under my belt.Honestly, you sound like a producer, a Will Packer type cat.

I wanted to aim high though. The idea with the most potential is a Sci Fi idea and if someone like Spielberg read it, he would want to put it together.
I wanna work my way up to the point I can pitch the ideas without worrying about it being stolen. It's hard to find information on movie idea protection, but that festival in Hollywood has a system in place to keep that from happening.
I believe the black lady who wrote the pitch for The Matrix sold her idea thru that festival for 5 million.

LOL
i thought that lady said she got ripped off and didnt get anything?

i have heard you never write a spec script and submit it. always have a deal in place or some kind of document that says they are looking at your work and will not use elements of it if no deal is reached.
