Greetings, I've just discovered this community and have been impressed with all the work I see.
I am looking for a script that fits certain criteria which I would produce and direct into a short film. Budget is still up in the air, but think "low". Payment for the script may or may not be possible. I intend on submitting the film to festivals.
I have access to many resources, thus, I would love a script to be tailored around those resources. I leave it up to the individual authors to decide what story and genre they wish to tell. I'll only list my prefrences and what I have to work with:
Preferences:
Genre: Comedy, Thriller, or Drama that primarily takes place on a farm.
Do you have any actor constraints, number of characters, ages, ethnicity, etc.? I assume you need a small character list but are there certain qualifications about their descriptions?
I've been involved with many independent features, but have yet to direct. My resume: http://www.dfazzio.com
I would be aiming to shoot in Spring or Summer. The farm is not too large (1000 acres). Lots of open land for horses and cattle. A couple photos of the horse barn and grazing areas: http://www.dfazzio.com/stables.jpg and http://www.dfazzio.com/farm.jpg . As you can see, it is a very nasty, cloudy, day, and it's winter, so it doesn't look very appealing right now =p
Actor constraints: No constraints currently other then to keep a small cast of characters. It also depends on the story to be told, being on a farm, if the story requires actors to act alongside or with animals, there may be special constraints and/or stunt doubles required.
