Hello everyone
I'm script-editing on a 26 episode TV series and we need one or two more writers. It's a stop motion animation project aimed at 8-12 year olds and set in an American school.
There is money but not a huge amount: 600 euros per script (it's a Spanish/Belgian co-production. In English. Set in the US. Yeah, I know). However, the stories have already been written and broken down into scene outlines - what they need added is funny dialogue, and lots of it.
The producer wants to stage a kind of writers' audition and then choose the most suitable writers for the job. If you're interested, what we'll do is send you:
1) some sample scenes from an already-written script;
2) descriptions of all the characters;
3) a story outline
and we'll ask you to write a couple of scenes on spec from that outline. If the producer likes your work and you're available over the next few weeks you'll be hired on the basis of one-script-at-a-time (including a couple of revisions) and then payment. He is a trustworthy chap and does actually pay up.
The scripts will be a maximum of 17 pages (the episodes are ten minutes long). I'll provide more details via email to anyone who's interested in the project.
Please send mail to Mike at: claykids.script - AT - gmail.com (no hyphens/spaces)
Any other questions feel free to ask here or by email. We're hoping to recruit a writer or writers this week, so get in touch as soon as you can if you want to try out.
Oh by the way, you'll need Celtx.
