A DARK COMEDY WRITER - SHORT FILM - PAID
Seeking screenwriters in Los Angeles, California
We’re looking for a comedy writer to collaborate with us on TOASTY, a dark absurd comedy short currently in post-production. The film is already shot, but Dr. Bliss, an outrageous L.A. radio host, still needs to be written. Dr. Bliss hosts a call-in radio show where people contemplating suicide call him for advice. He’s provocative, irreverent and absurd. If someone truly wants to go through with it, he’ll tell them to go for it. But underneath the dark humor, he offers a strange sense of hope. His philosophy is simple: your life, your choice. The Fisher King and Good Morning, Vietnam, are our references for the radio energy, irreverence and dark comedy.Dark • Absurd • Dry • Provocative Interested? Send us a short introduction, a comedy writing sample, and 5–10 lines based on either of these ideas: 1. A caller asks Dr. Bliss what TV channel should be playing on the television he plans to drop on his own head. OR come up with your own absurd situation for one of Dr. Bliss’s callers. Surprise us. 2. Continue the beginning of Dr. Bliss’s radio show: DR. BLISS (V.O.): “It’s Monday morning. Los Angeles is awake. God knows why. It’s seven-oh-five. I’m Dr. Bliss. Let’s see who regrets waking up — or is hearing me for the last time.” Take it wherever your sense of humor takes you. We want to hear your comedic voice!Email: estevez.chrisjean@gmail.com

Hi, I'm Tommy Luca. The picture's Creator. This Short Film Script is 18 pages but the Short Film P.O.C. will be 20 minutes in length because I'm going to adlib two pages while filming, and those two minutes I'm going to give the cast and crew creative license as long as it's within the boundaries of the story, we can let loose and have a ball filling the shots in. The Short Film has a working title of LUNCH. It's a Fantasy/Horror/Comedy. First stage we'll be in the Production Office before in Studio and On Set. What I need is a team lead by a Crowdfunding Campaign Manager that can manage the Crowdfunding Campaign to acquire the necessary capital of $175,000., more if we attract prominent Star Talent, to make the push into Preproduction on this Short Film P.O.C. The production budget is that high because the film is effects heavy requiring Concept Design, Concept Set Models, Concept Character Clay Maquettes, Storyboards, Atmospheric Special Effects, Pyrotechnic Special Effects, Partial & full Live-action Sets, Forced Perspective Foreground Miniature of a Creature Head for a shot, House Miniatures, Matte Paintings, Rotoscope work, Animation Effects, Mechanical Effects, Hair & Make-Up, Special Make-Up Effects, Radio Control Animatronic Characters, Rod Puppets, Props, Costumes, and much more.

Seeking Producer – Christian Series
Seeking producers in Lakeland, Florida
**PROJECT:** *The Last Trumpet Saga* **ROLE:** Producer / Production Partner I’m a first-time writer and creator developing an original Christian speculative fiction series called *The Last Trumpet Saga*. What started as a writing project I was doing for fun grew into an entire story world and a planned eleven-book saga. I have completed the first three books and have also written the pilot for the screen adaptation. I am now looking for an experienced producer or production partner who is interested in helping bring the project from the page to the screen. I’m a writer and creator—not a filmmaker—and I’m not looking to pretend otherwise. I bring the original IP, completed source material, characters, world, pilot, and long-term vision. I’m looking for someone who can bring professional film/television production experience and help navigate the process of developing the project for the screen. The project is being developed with the goal of pursuing Angel Studios and potentially developing a larger series. I’m intentionally keeping the story details limited in this public listing. I’d be happy to share more with qualified and genuinely interested industry professionals. I’m looking for a **long-term creative/production partnership**, not simply someone to provide a one-time service. If you're an experienced producer interested in Christian film/television and original genre storytelling, I would love to connect and discuss the project.

Seeking advisors in South San Jose Hills, California
[Jury Call] Looking for indie filmmakers, and post pros to judge a new festival in Silicon Valley Hey Stage 32 family,I'm an indie filmmaker currently locking in the Grand Jury panel for the inaugural DOCA Film Festival (running Nov 13, 2026 – Jan 1, 2027, in San Jose, CA), and I need a few awesome industry peers to help me judge. If you’re a director, pudecer screenwriter, editor, or sound designer, I’d love to have your eyes on these films. What the judging looks like (I strictly respect your time): No endless screening: You won't be digging through hundreds of raw submissions. I’ll only ask you to watch and score a curated shortlist of 3 to 5 short films in your category of expertise.100% Online: The judging happens remotely in late October / early November. Watch them on your own couch, at your own pace. A bit about the festival: I founded DOCA as an independent festival built around connecting filmmakers with massive audiences. during the San Jose Holiday Lights event in downtown San Jose. It’s a huge, immersive outdoor experience. I’m looking for judges across all categories, from traditional narrative/doc shorts to experimental, mobile filmmaking, and AI-assisted creations. Since this is my very first year, I’m running on a true grassroots indie budget, so I cannot offer a cash honorarium. What I can give you is massive appreciation and visibility: your bio and work will be highlighted across our official platforms to our massive holiday crowd, you'll get an official IMDb festival juror credit, and if you’re locally in the Bay Area, VIP passes to the whole holiday lights experience are on me. If you’re down to help me champion some great indie talent, shoot a quick email to stella@docafestival.com with your IMDb, website, or just a quick note about your background. Let's build something cool together. Cheers! Stella Zhang Filmmaker & Organizer, DOCA Film Festival

MUSICAL PODCAST FROM SOUND TO VISION Visual Development & Creative Collaboration Proposal An original narrative universe by Johnny Murray Production Pilot: Episode 60. MUNDUS IMAGINALIS Where Head and Heart Finally Meet Visual development focus: Episodes 60–64 ⸻ 1. THE INVITATION What if a story could be heard before it was seen? Musical Podcast is an original multilingual narrative/audio project created by Johnny Murray, combining screenplay, cinematic narration, poetry, original music, sound design and human/AI-generated voices. The project has already been produced as an established audio series, with a substantial catalogue and an IMDb presence. The next stage is not simply to “animate a podcast”. It is to discover its visual language. We are looking for an ambitious visual storyteller — potentially an animation director, filmmaker, illustrator, motion artist, experimental animator or multidisciplinary visual artist — interested in becoming a creative collaborator in the visual development of an original narrative universe. The first visual exploration will be based on: Mundus Imaginalis — Where Head and Heart Finally Meet Episode 60. ⸻ 2. THE PROJECT ALREADY EXISTS Musical Podcast is not an idea waiting to be produced. The audio work already exists. The project has developed a distinctive hybrid form combining: Storytelling + Music + Philosophy + Poetry + Theatre + Education + Speculative Fiction The public podcast description characterises the series as multilingual, combining original soundtrack, poetry and human and AI-generated vocals, while exploring human identity, transformation and self-discovery through educational and emotionally charged episodes. The series currently has a substantial episode catalogue, with Episodes 60–64 forming the particular body of work proposed for visual development. The project also has an existing IMDb presence, providing an established public identity for the work rather than presenting it as an entirely new, untested concept. ⸻ 3. WHY NOW? The first phase of Musical Podcast was primarily about sound. The next phase is about vision. The objective is not to reproduce the audio literally. It is to ask: What does this story look like? How does music become movement? How does philosophy become imagery? How can an abstract idea become a visual experience? How can a spoken narrative become cinematic without losing its poetic and educational character? And most importantly: Can sound, story and image create a new form of educational entertainment? ⸻ 4. THE FIVE-EPISODE VISUAL ARC The visual development project concentrates on Episodes 60–64. They are individually distinct, but together occupy a remarkably coherent territory: 60 — MUNDUS IMAGINALIS Where Head and Heart Finally Meet Imagination, symbols, archetypes and the relationship between inner vision and decision-making. Inspired by the ideas associated with Henry Corbin and Carl Jung, the episode introduces the imaginal world as a space in which inner visions and symbolic realities can influence how human beings navigate uncertainty and make choices. 61 — CRACK THE CODE OF FREE WILL Six philosophical positions enter a theatrical confrontation: Libertarian Determinist Compatibilist Fatalist Existentialist Pragmatist The episode transforms a philosophical question into a radio-theatre encounter, combining philosophical argument, poetry, cinematic narration and theatrical hip-hop. Its central question is deceptively simple: Is freedom real? Or are we following a deeper pattern of fate, causality and circumstance? 62 — LINCOLN 2.0 2052. A society exhausted by corruption, empty political promises and recycled ideologies turns to an extraordinary experiment: an Artificial Super-Intelligence Politician. Lincoln 2.0 is designed according to seven universal moral rules rather than party ideology or profit. During a live electoral debate, the ASI faces a human journalist questioning its understanding of ethics, faith, power and even the right of a machine to dream. The central question: Can an intelligence built around human values govern better than the humans who created it? This episode introduces a particularly powerful visual territory: political theatre, speculative futures, artificial intelligence, human-machine dialogue and moral imagination. 63 — BEFORE THE AFTER THE BEFORE Time stops behaving conventionally. A future decision reaches backwards and reshapes the meaning of the past. The episode explores retrocausality, nonlinear decision-making and the possibility that choices can be understood simultaneously from both directions of time. Its central proposition: Tomorrow makes a decision for yesterday. The narrative uses mirrored verses and reversible reasoning to turn the philosophical problem into an auditory experiment in nonlinear time. 64 — JUVENILE RESOLUTION What if your eight-year-old self could speak to you today? In this reflective closing movement, the child you once were travels forward to meet the adult you have become. Not to accuse. Not to judge. But to remind you of courage, values and the simpler wisdom that existed before fear, habits and expectations took over. The episode explores the meeting of past and future in the present — and the possibility that innocence and adult responsibility can work together to create a more conscious human being. ⸻ 5. THE UNDERLYING JOURNEY Taken together, Episodes 60–64 create a powerful conceptual progression: IMAGINATION How do we see possibilities? ↓ FREE WILL Are our choices really ours? ↓ ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Can another intelligence make better choices than us? ↓ TIME Can the future change the meaning of the past? ↓ SELF Who were we before we became who we are? The sequence moves progressively from the imaginal world, through freedom and artificial intelligence, into time and finally into the individual human being. This is the conceptual foundation of the visual project. ⸻ 6. THE PILOT MUNDUS IMAGINALIS Where Head and Heart Finally Meet Episode 60 is proposed as the first visual pilot. The episode is approximately eight minutes long and opens the new creative phase of the Musical Podcast. It combines original soundtrack, spoken word and reflections on decision-making, drawing on Henry Corbin’s concept of the imaginal world and Carl Jung’s understanding of symbols and archetypes. But the pilot is not intended to become an expensive eight-minute animated film immediately. The first objective is: to discover the visual language. A shorter cinematic sequence, teaser or proof-of-concept may therefore be developed first. The visual collaborator will be encouraged to interpret rather than simply illustrate. ⸻ 7. WHAT COULD MUNDUS IMAGINALIS LOOK LIKE? There is deliberately no predetermined answer. Possible visual territories include: * surreal animation * symbolic imagery * dream architecture * psychological landscapes * illustrated cinema * 2D or 2.5D animation * motion graphics * experimental film * mixed media * abstract visual storytelling * hand-drawn animation * photographic manipulation * digital environments * cinematic compositing * restrained VFX The essential requirement is not a particular technique. It is visual intelligence. The artist should be able to listen to the story and music and discover an image that does something the words cannot. ⸻ 8. THE CREATIVE OPPORTUNITY This is not primarily a freelance animation commission. It is an invitation to co-create the visual identity of an existing original IP. Johnny Murray brings: Original writing Narrative concepts Existing audio productions Original music Sound design Narration Characters and concepts An established podcast catalogue Existing public-facing IMDb presence The visual collaborator brings: Visual imagination Artistic interpretation Animation / filmmaking expertise Storyboarding Character and environment development Visual direction Technical execution The objective is to discover what happens when these two creative disciplines meet. ⸻ 9. WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR? We are particularly interested in artists who identify with one or more of the following: Animation Director Someone capable of translating an abstract narrative into cinematic movement. Visual Storyteller Someone who thinks in images, symbolism and visual metaphor. Experimental Filmmaker Someone interested in philosophical, psychological or unconventional narrative forms. Motion Designer Someone able to make music, typography, rhythm and imagery interact. Illustrator / Animator Someone with a distinctive artistic universe who wants original narrative material to work with. Emerging Director Someone with strong visual talent who is looking for an original project through which to demonstrate authorship. The ideal collaborator may ultimately be one person or a small creative team. ⸻ 10. WHO THIS PROJECT MAY BE PERFECT FOR There are talented visual artists who have: style technical ability imagination ambition but are still looking for the right story. Musical Podcast offers the opposite proposition: the story already exists. The screenplay exists. The music exists. The narrative universe exists. The audio performances exist. The visual world does not yet have a definitive form. That gap is the opportunity. ⸻ 11. THE CREATIVE CHALLENGE We are not asking: “Can you animate this?” We are asking: “If you heard this story, what world would you create?” The collaborator will be encouraged to bring an independent artistic interpretation. The visual adaptation should retain the philosophical and educational intention of the work while allowing the visual artist to contribute genuine authorship. ⸻ 12. THE EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE Musical Podcast is designed not only to entertain but to provoke reflection. Its stories use music, fiction, philosophy and imaginative situations to explore questions concerning: * identity * ethics * freedom * consciousness * technology * artificial intelligence * human behaviour * imagination * responsibility * personal transformation The visual adaptation therefore has an additional objective: to make difficult ideas emotionally accessible without reducing their complexity. The intention is not to lecture. It is to make the audience feel the question. ⸻ 13. WHY MUSIC MATTERS The visual artist is not starting with silent screenplay pages. The stories already possess an emotional architecture created through original music and sound design. Music determines: pace tension atmosphere transition emotion memory movement The visual development can therefore work directly against an existing soundtrack. The music becomes part of the visual narrative. ⸻ 14. THE FIRST COLLABORATIVE OUTPUT The initial objective would be a: VISUAL PROOF OF CONCEPT based on Mundus Imaginalis. It could be: 60–90 seconds or 2–3 minutes or another length agreed creatively. The purpose is to establish: * visual identity * atmosphere * character/world treatment * relationship between sound and image * animation language * cinematic rhythm * potential production methodology It does not need to represent the entire episode. It needs to prove the possibility. ⸻ 15. DEVELOPMENT PATH PHASE 1 Listen The collaborator experiences Episode 60 and receives the relevant creative material. PHASE 2 Interpret Visual references, moodboards, sketches and conceptual ideas. PHASE 3 Prototype A short visual experiment. PHASE 4 Proof of Concept A polished cinematic sequence. PHASE 5 Visual Bible Establish the visual language for Episodes 60–64. PHASE 6 Expansion Develop selected episodes into visual adaptations. ⸻ 16. THE LONGER-TERM POSSIBILITY If the pilot succeeds, the project can expand beyond a single animated episode. Potential forms include: Animated short films Visual podcast episodes Experimental cinema Music videos Festival submissions Educational visual content A larger animated series Screen adaptation Graphic / illustrated adaptations The five-episode arc provides the first development laboratory. The wider Musical Podcast catalogue provides the larger universe. ⸻ 17. WHAT THE COLLABORATOR GETS This is intended to be a creative partnership, not simply a production outsourcing arrangement. Depending on the final collaboration structure, the visual artist may gain: * prominent creative credit * an original narrative project for their portfolio * opportunity to develop a distinctive visual universe * association with an existing original IP * access to original music and finished audio * opportunity for festival/industry exposure * participation in future visual development * agreed commercial participation where appropriate The underlying original writing, music and existing IP remain separately identified and protected. Specific ownership, licensing, credit and commercial arrangements will be agreed before substantive production begins. ⸻ 18. THE CREATIVE PRINCIPLE We already have the sound. We already have the stories. We already have the music. We already have the questions. Now we need to discover the images. ⸻ 19. THE QUESTION FOR THE ARTIST If you could hear a world before seeing it… what would you make it look like? ⸻ MUSICAL PODCAST FROM SOUND TO VISION Visual Pilot: MUNDUS IMAGINALIS Where Head and Heart Finally Meet Created by Johnny Murray Production Original screenplay · Story · Music · Sound Design · Narrative Seeking a Visual Storytelling Collaborator Spotify · IMDb · Existing Audio Catalogue · Original IP
