Introduce Yourself : Independent Producer Looking to Collaborate with Writers by Jake DelVecchio

Independent Producer Looking to Collaborate with Writers

Hi everyone, my name is Jake DelVecchio. I'm a producer focused on developing compelling independent projects with strong creative foundations and realistic production plans.

I work closely with writers and directors to develop and produce all the way through post. Strategizing, fundraising, building efficient production workflows, and guiding delivery are all part of my process.

Currently, I’m looking to connect with writers who have short film scripts and are seeking a dedicated producer to help bring their project to life. I’m especially interested in grounded, character-driven stories with a target budget under $50K.

If you have a script that fits or want to collaborate, I’d love to hear from you. You can reach me directly here or through my site: jakedelvecchio.com

Let’s build something great.

Hi, Jake! Suppose there was a feature that was potentially produceable on that budget. Suppose that feature was a satire that was dangerously controversial in its unrelenting and disrespectful critique of prevailing power structures.

Would that be more exciting, or less exciting, than a short with less "targeted" appeal?

Hello, Jake!

Hi Jake,

Great to meet you — your approach really resonates with me. I admire how you emphasize both creative depth and practical execution; that balance is often what turns a good idea into a great production.

I’m currently developing a dark fantasy short that explores themes of resilience, guilt, and transformation through a strong, character-driven narrative. It’s designed to be visually atmospheric yet production-conscious, keeping the budget manageable without sacrificing emotional impact — so it sounds like it might align with the kind of projects you’re drawn to.

I’d love to connect and share more details about the script to see if it might be a fit for collaboration.
