Seeking screenwriters in New York City, New York
A friend of mine is a (wannabe) fantasy fiction writer. So passionate that he has assembled a small budget to produce a pilot for a television series (or maybe internet broadcast). He is main producer, director and he has written the script himself. Frankly... I consider it fan-fiction. Quite generic and not standing out in any way. Still he has assembled a budget and a crew around him and will start shooting.I want to save him from losing money and time.He could be filming a much better script. I have told him there are lots of talented scriptwriters out there that would love to see their work actually produced... but he sticks to his guns (auteur delusion)I would like to present him with a better script (idea/treatmentt), convince him to mainly focus on his strengths, which is producing. He is one of those guys that in the end gets things done.I am myself a trained scriptwriter, but I have no passion/talent for writing these kind of things. I am looking for a scriptwriter with an idea - a treatment - that stands out.It is within the genre; fantasy (think Game of thrones, LOTR, Vikings). He is basing the story on a world he created himself. The budget is limited so many scenes will be outside in nature. Cast restricted. No CGI. He has lots of fantasy costumes (he is very good at styling). He has a crew getting ready for 2026. He has a few locations.He may be able to reach this standard: I believe, that the only way for him to catch any attention with a limited budget is to have a strong original and daring script. To REALLY stand out. With story, style/expression, genre mix... whatever. Anything but copy other stories that had a bigger budget.Do you have something?If I get to see something that I think "will do the job" and will fit the producer/director - I will broker a deal. I know these things demands a lot of trust - but I am at heart a scriptwriter and ready to fight for the value of a script.I would also think a scriptwriting team would be a way forward - but first an idea.In time, further on in the process I will be able to show samples of the available actors, locations, costume availability. Please don't contact me and 'Apply for the job'. You Apply by reading all the nuances in my description and offer an idea that fits everything i have written. I will directly see if your idea is doable by this team/producer and if it has originality... I will try to sell your idea to him.

More About The TV Series This Film Aspires To Become Synopsis Project Elysium is a gripping and powerful drama inspired by real events. It follows the journey of an activist, a true advocate for ethical AI and job preservation, as he fights at the intersection of artificial intelligence, politics, and personal struggles. This series tells the real-life story of a man who lost everything due to the mass automation of the job market and embarked on a relentless battle to regulate AI before it’s too late. In the series, the main character is portrayed by Ethan Carter, an unemployed data analyst turned activist who finds himself on the front lines of the unchecked rise of AI and its devastating societal consequences. His journey in the series mirrors his real-life fight—an urgent and necessary plea to protect the future of work and humanity. The series weaves together three interlinked narratives, creating a multi-layered, emotionally charged story that blurs the boundaries between reality, memory, and hope: Layer 1: The Harsh Reality (Present Day) Ethan Carter is a man stripped of everything by the very technology he once supported. A once-respected data analyst, he lost his job, stability, and home due to being unable at reentering a saturated job market in tech after companies streamlined operations with AI and displaced thousands in 2024. Now homeless, Ethan is one of the few voices speaking out against unregulated AI, desperately trying to warn the world before it’s too late. But every attempt to raise awareness is met with indifference and powerful forces determined to silence him. Layer 2: The Parallel Reality (Virtual World) In his imagination, through the depiction of a Virtual Reality environment, Ethan escapes into a virtual vision of himself as a successful AI advocate. In this alternate world, he is neither ignored nor marginalized—he is an influential public figure, delivering impactful speeches, shaking hands with politicians, and shaping policy in ways the real world denies him. This alternate reality serves as both his refuge and his greatest torment, as every return to reality is a brutal shock. Layer 3: The Past (How Did He Get Here?) Through flashbacks, we uncover Ethan’s journey—from his rise in the tech industry to his dramatic downfall. Once a respected AI consultant and data analyst, he foresaw the dangers of unchecked automation. He tried to warn major corporations and policymakers, but his warnings were ignored—then he was blacklisted. These flashbacks ground the story in reality, showing how systemic forces led to the current crisis. (Above outline registered on wgawregistry.org) Why This Film Matters Project Elysium is not just a sci-fi drama—it is a warning, a call to action, and a powerful narrative designed to influence the public debate on AI regulation in the United States. The series does not simply entertain; it compels viewers to reflect on the future of work, ethics, and the role of artificial intelligence in society. Through its innovative structure, Project Elysium constantly pushes viewers to ask: What is real?What is illusion?Can one man truly change the course of history in the face of AI? With a thrilling storyline, intense emotional moments, and a unique blend of dystopian realism and visionary hope, Project Elysium aims not only to reshape how AI is portrayed in the media—but also how it is understood in the real world. Why The Series Matters A compelling, real-world-inspired story tackling AI ethics & workforce displacement.A Visually stunning blend of AI-generated and real-shot footage, delivering deep emotional resonance.Designed to shape public discourse on AI regulation at the highest levels. The 10-minute concept film will serve as a proof of concept to bring Project Elysium to life as a fully developed TV series for global distribution. Your creativity could help craft an innovative series poised to captivate global audiences and shape a future where AI ethics and governance take center stage in global civilization. Join us in making a groundbreaking statement on the future of AI and humanity.

More About The TV Series This Film Aspires To Become Synopsis Project Elysium is a gripping and powerful drama inspired by real events. It follows the journey of an activist, a true advocate for ethical AI and job preservation, as he fights at the intersection of artificial intelligence, politics, and personal struggles. This series tells the real-life story of a man who lost everything due to the mass automation of the job market and embarked on a relentless battle to regulate AI before it’s too late. In the series, the main character is portrayed by Ethan Carter, an unemployed data analyst turned activist who finds himself on the front lines of the unchecked rise of AI and its devastating societal consequences. His journey in the series mirrors his real-life fight—an urgent and necessary plea to protect the future of work and humanity. The series weaves together three interlinked narratives, creating a multi-layered, emotionally charged story that blurs the boundaries between reality, memory, and hope: Layer 1: The Harsh Reality (Present Day) Ethan Carter is a man stripped of everything by the very technology he once supported. A once-respected data analyst, he lost his job, stability, and home due to being unable at reentering a saturated job market in tech after companies streamlined operations with AI and displaced thousands in 2024. Now homeless, Ethan is one of the few voices speaking out against unregulated AI, desperately trying to warn the world before it’s too late. But every attempt to raise awareness is met with indifference and powerful forces determined to silence him. Layer 2: The Parallel Reality (Virtual World) In his imagination, through the depiction of a Virtual Reality environment, Ethan escapes into a virtual vision of himself as a successful AI advocate. In this alternate world, he is neither ignored nor marginalized—he is an influential public figure, delivering impactful speeches, shaking hands with politicians, and shaping policy in ways the real world denies him. This alternate reality serves as both his refuge and his greatest torment, as every return to reality is a brutal shock. Layer 3: The Past (How Did He Get Here?) Through flashbacks, we uncover Ethan’s journey—from his rise in the tech industry to his dramatic downfall. Once a respected AI consultant and data analyst, he foresaw the dangers of unchecked automation. He tried to warn major corporations and policymakers, but his warnings were ignored—then he was blacklisted. These flashbacks ground the story in reality, showing how systemic forces led to the current crisis.

Seeking producers in Los Angeles, California
Hi everyone — I’m currently developing a half-hour dramedy series called SASS, co-created with the brilliant Shayon Maitra (renowned Bengali director/editor) and myself, Lindsey Brannon (producer). We’re looking to team up with a showrunner or executive producer to help bring this story to life. SASS follows a group of South Asian college students as they navigate identity, friendship, and ambition through the lens of their university’s South Asian Student Society (yes, also called SASS). It’s Dear White People meets Never Have I Ever — rooted in culture, packed with heart, and brimming with wit and generational tension. Think: chai-fueled debates, club elections gone rogue, first loves, family expectations, and the messy magic of finding your people. ✨ Why this series matters: It’s the kind of representation we don’t see enough of — layered, joyful, and unapologetically specific It captures a formative time of life through a fresh, authentic lens And it’s co-created by two creatives passionate about telling this story right We’re looking for a creative partner with experience in dramedy or ensemble stories, who is excited about centering underrepresented voices and helping us launch something fresh and meaningful. If this sounds like your kind of project — or you know someone who’d be a great fit — I’d love to connect.
