Robin Chappell is a Writer/Producer/Director/Talent (Illuminous Productions, Ltd.) with seven finished feature scripts 'in the can,' and another twenty-some in various stages of completion. He published his first collection of short stories "Dreams, Desires, And Dead Ends," last year (the premiere offering for his Literary Imprint, Illuminousity Press). His first Novel, "Nothing Personal" was released this year, with Novel number Three -- "shadows and LIGHT" -- presently 'due' for release at the end of October.
He is looking for potential crew/development personnel to begin collaborating on planning a production schedule which would work year round, rolling from production into production. His scripts are in a variety of genres, ranging from Indie Character-driven dramas (with comedic elements) to Sci-fi Tent Poles (once the company is fully up and running).
Please be advised that he is not considering screenplay submissions by others. He will however, be casting (and putting out casting calls) only as needed for Productions already in Pre-Pro.
Thank you.
