Urgent

Looking for an experienced American writer based in LA for working on a feature film script. Story and screenplay is written. Just need a few changes and additions. Project is in deferred mode. There will be a contract. 

DM me if interested or if you have any leads. 

I have already started pitching it and need someone on board asap to work on the feedback received.

Thank you. Please spread the word.

Pierre Langenegger

Just curious why you need an American writer and one who's based in LA? If the script is already written but you just need to apply some notes, you could do it yourself or hire an editor.

Also curious if this is a paying role?

Stephen Floyd

Why are you unable to make the changes yourself?

Stephen Floyd Pierre Langenegger Feedback I have received from my producer is that I need to "Americanize" the script as far as dialogue and situations are concerned. I am from India. I moved here 2 years ago.

Pierre Langenegger

I edit a lot of scripts for American writers, and my second question still remains, is this a paying role?

Teeshay Sh

Pierre Langenegger The post says pay is deferred and there will be a contract.

Pierre Langenegger

Deferred? No thank you.

Craig D Griffiths

All “free” work has a contract. They tend to contain shares in a profit that never appears.

Craig D Griffiths With due respect this film's contract is about getting paid as soon as the budget is set for making the movie.

No one is begging you to refer or be a part of this project. If you dont like what you see or read on this post kindly move on to the next post. Thanks!

I'm not being a troll, I'm trying to get some facts because this task is what I do. Let's assume for a moment that the producer is expecting you to Amercanize the script as part of your payment but you're not comfortable doing that. If you're confident this will be produced and you'll be paid then you should hire an editor and pay them yourself as you'll be reimbursed when you're paid.
