Submission guidelines

If you have that perfect script for us, please send a query letter with a brief synopsis (one paragraph to one page in length).

Please do not send scripts unless requested.  They will not be opened and will not be read.

Right now, we are especially hoping to find that powerful and edgy script with minimal locations, like Memento, Bound, or Rear Window.  Even better if it makes us laugh.

We like:

  • thrillers/edgy/film noir (i.e. Memento)
  • dark comedies
  • off-beat comedies (i.e. Napoleon Dynamite)
  • strong plots
  • interesting characters

We’re not currently interested in period pieces.

Please note, if we request a script, it will likely be read by members of our company, professional readers, and/or our advisors.

Press & awards

“The Scenesters is the movie I keep telling my friends about. It’s funny, inventive and unlike anything I’ve seen in long time.”
USATODAY.com

“‘The Scenesters’ is a gutsy experiment that rewards the viewer’s knowledge of Los Angeles, movies and TV with a funny and engaging hyper-meta crime story.”
NBC New York

“Finally, a film that is provocative, intelligent, hilarious-and moves so swiftly, that you’re left gasping for more. On top of that, the cinematography is unusually interesting, the screenplay is outstanding, the acting is formidable, and the score is deliciously Film Noir.”
Film Threat
