Work one-on-one with an executive at mutually agreed upon times around your schedule. To start, you'll have a 15-minute strategy call with your executive to get the lay of the land for the month. Then, you’ll have email access to your executive throughout, plus four one-hour story notes sessions. Work on a single screenplay or multiple scripts plus get additional notes on your pitch, brand strategy, and career advice - work your mentorship to its fullest potential!
I like clear concepts, compelling characters, and conversational pitches!
I am looking for two buckets primarily: 1) low budget, high concept horror/thriller screenplays under $5M. 2) "nerdy stuff" anything that fits within the "comic-con" space, including anime, animation, horror, crime, sci-fi, thrillers, existing IP across many formats.
Superhero, period, space epics
