Introduce Yourself : Autor & Screenwriter | Coming- of-age stories blending humor and emotion | Seeking partners for production by Joseph Evans

Hi, Joseph Evans. Hope you're enjoying summer! Could you tell us more about yourself and your stories?

Maurice Vaughan Hi Maurice, Joseph’s Bio translates as:

“As a passionate author and screenwriter, I develop stories rooted in reality, which explore adolescence, identity and deep emotions. My first feature film, a popular project, mixes sincerity humor and pop culture in a quest for adolescent recognition. I am here to meet producers, directors and partners to move this project forward and develop others to come.”

Thanks, Geoff Hall.

Hi Maurice,

Thank you for your interest!

I'm a passionate writer and storyteller based in Gabon. For my first project, I chose to work on a story rooted in real life — with strong emotions and teenage characters facing personal challenges.

This project is a feature film called Projet Populaire. It's about a 13-year-old boy who comes up with a wild plan to become popular at school, along with his group of outcast friends. It's a coming-of-age dramedy that blends humor, emotion, and pop culture, exploring themes like identity, friendship, shame, and the need to be seen.

While this first story is grounded and realistic, I also really love fiction, especially superhero films and stylized stories set in alternate worlds. I’m curious about many genres, but this project felt important to me because of its honesty and emotional impact.

I also have an idea for a future series — about a boy going through tough times and trying to find hope again through Christian faith — but right now my main focus is to develop and push Projet Populaire forward.

I’d be happy to share more about the script, characters, or scenes if you’re interested!

Best regards,

Maurice Vaughan
