Screenwriter seeks Irish-based Producer/Production company

8 years, 10 months ago - Carol Younghusband

I am looking to partner with an Irish-based Production company to enter Ireland's 30,000 euro 'Storyland' initiative. I have a 20 minute sensitive film script that is set against one of Ireland's dramatic coasts, it features characters with integrity and an unpredictable ending. The script meets RTÉ and Northern Ireland's delivery spec, and I have most of the additional background material needed to accompany our entry.

I am an experienced writer with several awards under my belt, and although my family are from Ireland I don't reside there and the rules specify that entry needs to be from a tax compliant Irish production company. They do not require a director to be attached at this stage.

The deadline for the Storyline entry is noon on 13 Oct, so If you are interested could you please drop me a line before end of Sep (as time is tight) either via SP or via my website www.carolyounghusband.com. I can furnish you with a short synop and/or full script. Alternatively, if you would like a brief preview please visit: www.betweenthepiers.com. I very much look forward to hearing from you. Best wishes, Carol.

Hi Carol,
Are you still looking for a producer?
I don't have an Irish company but they said the company can be set up at the time of the commission.
In the UK I work under Split Second Films.

Hi Margaret, many thanks for your response. Yes, I'm still looking for a producer - there doesn't seem to be that many in Ireland, but if there is this leeway then we could certainly give it a go. If you send me your email address I'll forward you the synop and script. Having had a quick look at the type of films you've done in the past, I'm not sure that it fits in with your catalogue of work but have a read and we can go from there. All the best, Carol
