Sarantos on Turning Award-Winning Screenplays Into Film Opportunities

In this episode of Mission Matters, ⁠Adam Torres⁠ interviews ⁠Sarantos⁠, CEO of Sarantos Melogia, LLC, about his first American Film Market experience and his journey as a high-output creator. Sarantos shares how screenplay contests and professional feedback helped refine his scripts, how he connects music and film through storytelling, and why he’s focused on getting his award-winning screenplays produced. About ⁠Sarantos Melogia⁠ Sarantos is a Chicago-based nerd, retired superhero, and international DIY music rebel with a relentless monthly release schedule that hasn’t slowed down in over a decade. He's a multi-genre, multi-award-winning solo artist who’s topped charts across the globe—#1 iTunes in multiple genres like Rock, Country, Christian and Singer-Songwriter. And believe it or not, he does it all without a professional studio. With a staggering number of albums and original songs released, Sarantos is committed to continuing to release a new song, lyric video, music video, book chapter, poem, and behind-the-scenes video every single month. Every year, he also drops a new CD and book each November—plus a surprise album, just because. But Sarantos isn’t just about the numbers—he’s about connection. He writes for the misunderstood, the nerds, the loners, and the dreamers. His music has been featured on shows like The Young & the Restless and spun on radio stations from the BBC to top indie charts, featured in Billboard Magazine, as well as often cracking the Top 200 in U.S. airplay with zero label backing. He is an official member of The Recording Academy—the renowned institution behind the GRAMMY® Awards. He also hosts The Songwriter Show, broadcast live on the #1-ranked Reality Radio with listeners in all 206 countries. The show is syndicated on over 60 platforms including iHeartRadio, Spotify, and iTunes.
