I have a project I want to build a team of writers around. I have a current script that is merely a starting point to work from. The idea is that it is a style of sketch show with a concept that gives it a loose thread that holds it together.
The basic concept is that each episode starts at a bar ran by three friends, then though an assortment of random events the tales move away from the pub where the viewers encounter different random scenarios and events each time. Eventually each episode would finish with the chance events finishing back at the bar. The only consistent characters in the series would be the three friends who feature at the start and end, and sometimes in between. I wouldn't like to have Lou and Andy style characters being repeated and done to death, though the odd character or familiar event could reoccur now and again.
I originally started putting this together because my brother and I have been doing some walk on parts and last week we work on a docu film for the History channel that got us interested again. I wrote the initial script with the intention of acting it out on film and sending it off to production companies as our suggestion for a show but at the moment it still needs strengthening, then perhaps later on if we (the proposed writers) build a good team, we can still do that, who knows?
Best regards
Scott
