British Comedy Guide

Comedy Screenwriter sought.

Hello all.

I will aim to keep this short and sweet - the nature of forums tends to result in many threads like this being created which I imagine seem to go nowhere and I would dearly like not to add to that pile. For what its worth I have professional experience and do tend to 'get things done'.

I am an experienced Producer (commercial and event-based) with something of a background in stand-up, although that is unrelated to my professional career. Currently seeking to complete 1 or 2 comedy shorts during 2018. These could be 10 minutes or longer depending on what scripts we are able to create. These would be purely self-funded but I aim to employ as much experienced talent as I can. I have 2 ideas for films I would like to pursue, hence my post here as I am rather out of the loop as far as the comedy community goes.

Currently seeking a screenwriter to work with on a professional basis. Sheets of experience not necessary but clearly someone who knows how to construct a funny script and who enjoys to work fairly collaboratively would be desirable.

Any messages outlining experience and rates will be replied to. I hope this tells people all they need and is in a format which is fairly forum-friendly: I know forums can often have specific rules and if I have contravened anything do let me know and I will edit accordingly.

Thank you for reading.

Paul

I am a screenwriter. I've written for Richard Pryor Jr's shows before (and yeah, he's the son of.)
I mostly like political satire, so if you got a spot for that, I'd be interested.

Hi, Paul;

If you're still looking for fresh, standout talent (...like: "How Do I Know Mermaids Never Existed? Because Men Would Never Allow Women To Live With Their Legs Fused Together!"...) then email me for more of the same at: deejaybim@yahoo.com.

And if you - or anyone else on this thread seeking Writers requires, I've done some really great work on most of the globally-trending topics. And when I make MYSELF laugh out loud, then it's usually MORE than funny!

Regards,

i would say i cant write a joke to save my life but I can write funny!!! discovered a long time ago that they aren't the same thing

Email me on joe@balancingact.org.uk

What if someone has no professional experience at all? How do they prove they can do this?

With a screenplay, presumably.

Hi Paul,

I have completed a number of screenplays, if you would like to see any of my material please feel free to let me know.
