How to approach
Do the paperwork first or nothing else counts. Their instructions are that a registered synopsis goes to the script address with their release form filled in and signed, and they state that anything arriving without the signed form is treated as a non-submission and disregarded. That is not a formality you can follow up on later.
Register the work before sending, attach the form, and send the synopsis rather than the screenplay. Then wait: they ask for a minimum of four weeks, which by the standards of this directory is an unusually concrete promise, so let it pass in full before you consider the silence meaningful.
The PreList verdict
Who this is for: writers with a registered feature synopsis and the patience to complete a release form properly. The route is genuinely open and the four-week response commitment is more than most companies of this size offer.
Who should skip it: anyone who will not register the work or sign a release. That is a real decision rather than a technicality, and if you are not comfortable with their terms the right move is not to send.
The release requirement is worth understanding rather than resenting. A company that reads unsolicited material needs protection against a later claim that an idea came from a submission, and the form is what makes reading your synopsis safe for them. It is the reason the door is open at all.
