Briefing outline (please see pdf for full details):
In 2021, Kyra is launching the first ever youth-focused streaming platform that will rival the likes of Netflix, Amazon and Hulu.
We will launch with a slate of 4-6 premium scripted shows.
We are looking for the best emerging writers in the world, who can join us to develop groundbreaking work for a youth audience: think Euphoria, Mid90s and Kids in series form.
While we don’t require an extensive track record, the writers we commission will need to have an understanding of a youth audience and the ability to write Emmy award winning screenplays that can impact culture on a global scale.
Sounds like an exciting project! If you end up needing a music supervisor, please keep me in mind as I'd love to collaborate :)
