Hi Shooters,

I hope you're keeping well.

I'm a new producer looking for collaborators to work on short films this year.

I'd love to hear from you if you're a writer, writer/director or director who is interested in telling stories about women and the global majority. Genres of particular interest are drama, comedy and sci-fi, but I could be open to others depending on the story.

I'm looking for ideas or early stages of screenplays up to 12 pages long. If you already have a finished screenplay at 3 - 5 pages then I would also be interested. However, please don't send me your scripts unless requested. Initially, I would like to review loglines and then we can discuss next steps.

So if you're interested in exploring working together, please get in touch with me via the contact page at www.polygonfilms.co.uk

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,

Justina

Hello Justina,
Though my experience is as a broadcast television drama series and serials director and producer, in more recent times, I have picked up the pen to write, initially scenes for drama workshops and showreel soliloquies, progressing to short drama film screenplays. I have now directed two of these. For the other 4, through your website / e-mail,
I shall send to you a one page summary on each of these, together with a one page ABOUT ME. Thank you Nicholas Prosser : e-mail nicholas.prosser@gmail.com

Hi Justina
I'm a multi-optioned/commissioned screenwriter who has nearly had five feature films optioned. As the final finances couldn't be reached, I've written a powerful short script to hopefully win awards to reach a world audience about a powerful topic.
If you are interested, please email on lindamjames77@gmail.com

Thanks
