After being quite successful at short film festivals with my last film (
Underground), I am now trying to put together a second short film project.
Since I was having quite a hard time with the story the last time around, I now want to do this the right way from start and have the script written written by a professional. I really want to focus on producing and directing this time.
This project is very different from start. First of all I have a donor involved, who is willing to finance a large part of the production costs.
- under one condition: He must like the story and it will be a project that will have good chances of getting into the top 5 international film festivals.
Meaning: You will get paid an agreed fee or %, once the budget gets cleared and we are going ahead with the production. I am NOT working with multiple writers at the same time, so this is not a writing competition. If we agree to work together, then there wont be anyone else involved.
The story in question is something that I have been thinking about for a long time now and I have gathered dozens of photographs and video snippets that will hopefully explain my "vision" 
To out it in a nutshell: The story is about photography and about how the world is seen through the eyes of a little girl (dont take this too literal).If you are interested in this project, please get in touch with me.
