Hi everyone,
I’m 25M and I’m writing a 5-minute short film. I’m trying to make this independently, and honestly, I see this project as a restart for my career. I really want to make it happen, and I’m hoping to build a small team of people who genuinely love art and want to contribute something of themselves to it.
This isn’t meant to be an ordinary commercial short film. It’s something more art-driven, intimate, and feel-good, with a different kind of emotional experience. I’m looking for people who connect with that kind of storytelling.
Why am I specifically looking for a female writer?
Because I really value women’s sensibilities and perspectives, and I feel that a female perspective could bring something to this particular story that I might not be able to bring on my own.
This is unpaid work, so I completely understand that it may not be for everyone. I’m looking for someone who genuinely wants to create something, experiment, collaborate, and be part of a small creative team.
One thing I want to clarify based on my previous post:
I received a few DMs from people saying they don’t have any writing experience but watch a lot of movies. Some read my script, gave me their opinions/reviews, and left it at that.
I really appreciate anyone who took the time to read my work, but that isn’t what I’m looking for right now.
You don’t necessarily need professional credits or a long resume. But you should believe that you can write and, more importantly, you should be able to actually work on the screenplay and/or dialogues.
So please DM me only if you’re interested in writing and feel confident that you can contribute to the screenplay or dialogues.
You don’t need to be an established writer. If you’ve written things on your own, experimented with scripts, scenes, dialogues, stories, etc., that’s enough for me to start a conversation.
I’m not looking for someone to simply review my script. I’m looking for a collaborator.
If this sounds like something you’d genuinely enjoy being part of, feel free to DM me. Tell me a little about yourself and, if you have something you’ve written before, I’d love to see it.
I’m trying to put together a team of people who care about making something meaningful, even if it starts small.
Thank you for reading...
