About the job

Job Title: Creative Producer & Showrunner – Independent Digital Series

 (Development Phase)

Project Type: Independent Development (Pilot/Pitch Stage) Location: Los Angeles, CA

Overview: We are seeking an inventive Creative Producer/Showrunner to architect a new web-based variety series. The project centers on a featured Actor, Singer, and Songwriter whose work bridges mainstream musical performance with a distinct, offbeat sense of humor.

We are looking for a "Creative Partner" to help finalize the show’s format and production budget as we move into the investment and pitching phase.

The Talent Profile: The featured artist is a multi-talented performer with high-level musical abilities and an authentically unconventional personality. The "vibe" of the project draws inspiration from several archetypes:

The authentic, dry wit often seen in indie comedy.
The genuine, surprising musical impact of a breakout variety artist.
The engaging, polished energy of a mainstream host.

Key Responsibilities:

Format Development: Design a repeatable series structure that showcases the artist’s songwriting, acting range, and guest interactions.

Production Strategy: Lead the "pitch-ready" phase, including drafting a production model and realistic budget for investor presentations.

Creative Direction: Provide supportive direction to ensure the artist’s unique "brand voice" remains cohesive across musical and comedic segments.

On-Camera Potential: We are open to candidates with a strong on-camera presence who could serve as a "straight-man" co-host or recurring partner.

Compensation & Engagement: This project is currently in the active development and investment phase.

Initial Phase: A project-based fee or stipend for completing the "Pitch Deck" and production budget.

Production Phase: A full industry-standard Producer/Showrunner salary will be integrated into the formal production budget once funded.

Equity/Incentives: For the right partner, we are open to discussing "Executive Producer" credit and backend participation.

How to Apply: Please submit your resume and a portfolio (links to digital series, talk shows, or music-driven content) to netprofitable@gmail.com.
