Screenwriting for Short Film

Hey there! Looking for a screenwriter to collaborate on an upcoming independent short film. This is a lighthearted romantic comedy, think "Before Sunrise" meets a slightly awkward first date. We want to capture that genuine, sometimes cringey, but ultimately sweet feeling of new connection. The story follows two strangers who meet unexpectedly and spend an afternoon exploring Miami, leading to a charming, open-ended encounter. Your main responsibility will be developing a tight, engaging script based on a pre-established logline and character outlines. We're looking for strong dialogue and a clear narrative arc for a film in the 10-15 minute range. You'll work closely with me, the producer, and a director to bring this vision to life. Experience level isn't as important as your portfolio, so please send over any writing samples you have, especially comedic or romantic pieces. While we don't expect a fully produced film, short stories, plays, or even well-developed scene work would be helpful. We're aiming for a 3-5 day writing sprint, with flexible hours, once we kick off the project. Compensation is $150-300 per day, depending on your experience and the final scope of work. We'll provide comprehensive feedback and a clear creative brief. Let's make something fun!
