That sounds like a great direction to take it. Linking the stories together could help build a bigger world and give readers something to follow across each instalment. I think exploring both the book and screenplay possibilities is worth considering as the idea develops. Do you already have an...
This is an intense read! I like how you build the tension as Vance goes from fighting alongside his squad to having to survive alone inside the alien Battleship. The descriptions of the different alien species and the constant sense of danger make it easy to picture the action, especially the...
Welcome to the screenwriting world! It's great that you're bringing your experience with short stories into screenwriting. Sci-fi offers so many possibilities for interesting stories and worlds. I look forward to seeing some of your excerpts and learning more about what you're working on. Best...
Thanks for sharing this insight. I agree that having the legal side in order is just as important as having a strong screenplay and securing funding. Clear ownership of rights, proper agreements, and a solid chain of title can make a real difference when a project reaches the sales and...
Hi everyone,
I'm interested in hearing from writers, filmmakers, and producers about the projects they're currently developing.
Some projects are still at the idea or treatment stage, while others already have a completed screenplay and are looking for the right next step.
I'm curious to...
That’s an interesting way for the idea to come together, Robert. Turning the industry’s own clichés and expectations into a story sounds like a clever angle. Have you had a chance to get professional feedback on the screenplay, or are you mainly focused on getting it in front of producers?
I think both matter, but the strength of the screenplay comes first because it shows the potential of the story. At the same time, a writer’s ability to take feedback, make improvements, and develop the material further can make a real difference. An imperfect script can still be worth pursuing...
I think it comes down to whether the scene serves the overall story. A scene might be well written and acted, but if it slows the pacing or doesn’t add enough to the characters or plot, it may need to be reworked or removed. Sometimes, letting go of a good scene helps make the whole story stronger.
Hello Michael and Susanne, welcome to the community! The GOLEM Universe sounds fascinating, especially its exploration of AI, human responsibility, and the future of civilization. Having 13 completed novels and adaptation materials already prepared is impressive. I wish you both success in...
Hi, welcome to the forum! Thanks for sharing a little about your projects. Both the psychological thriller and the coming-of-age comedy sound interesting, and it’s great that you’ve completed the scripts. What stage are you currently at with each project, and have you received any feedback on...
I think both are important. Connecting with potential partners early can be helpful, as it allows filmmakers to understand what the market is looking for. At the same time, having a strong screenplay and a clear project package can make those conversations more productive. I believe it comes...
Thank you! I agree that finding the right people at the right stage is very important. Sometimes, a fresh perspective can make a real difference to a project. I'm curious, are you currently working on any film projects yourself, or are you mainly focused on connecting with other filmmakers?
At the moment, I’m focused on connecting with writers, producers, and filmmakers and discovering interesting projects at different stages of development. I’m particularly interested in projects with potential that may benefit from further development before moving forward. I’m here to build...
I agree. Being clear about what a filmmaker needs helps everyone understand the project better and makes it easier to identify the right opportunities. I think it’s an important part of finding the right path for a promising project.
I agree that understanding how a story is approached can tell you a lot about a project and the people behind it. I’m currently focused on connecting with writers, filmmakers, and producers and learning more about the projects they’re developing. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts!
