How to publish/sell a story/screenplay to the film industry!?

Question by Tim: How to publish/sell a story/screenplay to the film industry!?
Okay, so I have thought of a good plot, that I would like to sell to the film industry. I know the only way to sell a story is to write it down. So yeah i will write the story and therefore the script(I will try that at least). So after having written it, what I do next? I register my work for copyright right? And then i trademark my story name I guess?

I also have to find a literally agent? Will they accept my work? I say that because I am not involved in film production.

Thanks.

You need an agent, period. No studio, actor, director or producer is going to touch an unsolicited script.
