DirectorsLittleBlackBook.com is owned by California-based DLBB, LLC, a division of The Little Black Book Company, Inc. CEO, Michael Elliot, heads the company. Allison Moore is the company’s Vice President.

Elliot – an accomplished screenwriter and former entertainment exec – is on a mission to help non-established filmmakers, writers and actors reach their potential by offering a targeted marketing strategy. Encouraged by the success of his websites, WritersLittleBlackBook.com and ActorsLittleBlackBook.com; Elliot created DirectorsLittleBlackBook.com to support the dreams of aspiring directors. DLBB’s guiding principle is to provide new directors with the one contact at agencies and management companies who are actively searching for the next generation of directors.

Elliot began his screenwriting career in 1998 when he sold his first spec script without representation. His plan: drop off his script at a targeted production company, addressed to the one person most likely to read a script from a new writer. Three hours later, the executive read his spec and that evening, Elliot had a meeting with the VP of the company. He sold his script, seven days later. Today, Elliot is one of the most accomplished African-American screenwriters and producers in Hollywood.

Elliot sold his first screenplay “Seven Days”, to 20th Century Fox, which was later retitled “Brown Sugar” and released in 2002 by Fox Searchlight Pictures.

He subsequently wrote and sold four consecutive films scripts, “MTV’s Hip-Hopera: Carmen”, which launched the feature film careers for Beyonce Knowles, “Brown Sugar”, a hip-hop love story, “Like Mike”, starring Lil’ Bow Wow and “Just Wright” starring Queen Latifah which will be in theatres in 2010.

Spanning an 11-year career, Elliot sold over 25 film and television projects. He has developed projects for Warner Bros. Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Walt Disney Pictures, Fox 2000 Pictures, Universal Pictures, Fox Searchlight Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Showtime, VH1, FOX, BET and HBO.
