I Signed a Shopping Agreement for JUMP SCARES

I signed a shopping agreement with producer/screenwriter Sharon Nash Alexander for my Horror Comedy game show, JUMP SCARES. She started pitching the show today.

I met Sharon through this post on Stage 32: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/introduce_yourself/Unscripted-development...

She has developed and pitched a variety of concepts for television and film projects to TLC, Paramount, Authentic TV, Endemol, Warner Horizon, Asylum Entertainment, Arthur Smith Productions, 44 Blue, OWN, and NBC. She sold two projects to HGTV.

If you have an unscripted show, get in touch with her. She's looking for more projects.

Also - for anyone looking to develop a great unscripted concept of you own before making contacts like Maurice did here please allow me to recommend Bobby Garcia’s Stage 32 webinar on how to develop binge-worthy unscripted shows. Bobby recently ran unscripted development for Will and Jada Smith’s Westbrook, Inc. His webinar is this Friday, March 31st. Here’s a link so you can check it out: https://www.stage32.com/webinars/Developing-Your-Binge-Worthy-Unscripted...
