Newsletter for ‘The Elementals’ Short film
Hello!
My new screenplay ‘The Elementals’ is finished! We are currently in the pre-production phase. Organising shoots, creating sets and props. Over the last two weeks we have been holding auditions and after careful consideration, we have our four main actors of Water, Fire, Earth and Air! Stanley Tovey is Water, Penelope Anderson is Fire, Kristen Wilson is Earth and Owen Ross is Air.
‘The Elementals’ is the story of “Four unlikely friends with conflicting personalities, banding together to pull off the heist of a lifetime. With the power of the elements, they defy the rules of physics. Can they put aside their differences for a lifesaving amount of money or will their conflicts make everything fall apart.”
This project was started with the intent of working with as many creative and like-minded people as possible, therefore I’d like to introduce an exciting opportunity for up and coming artists!
With six weeks until the release of the film, we are looking for five artists to create five original posters for our film. Submissions start immediately! To submit, send an example of your work, along with your contact details to Theelementalsfilm@gmail.com by Friday the 30th of November. The five lucky artists will be contacted over the first weekend of December and given exclusive access to the FULL screenplay, as well as a sum of £100.
We look forward to receiving submissions from many inspired and talented artists.
Good Luck!
In other exciting news, my colleagues and I have brand new courses available on Skillshare in screenwriting, Acting, Editing, Production, Directing and Set design. Skillshare is a great way to learn from professionals online and if you sign up now through the link below you can receive a 30-day free trial. I have recently been learning watercolour techniques through Skillshare, although writing is my main passion I feel as a creative person it is important to try other art forms that you may not be used to. You might even find that it gets your creative juices flowing and solves your writer’s block!
With six weeks and counting I hope you stick around to see our labour of love! If you would like to support us in our creation of ‘The Elementals’ please consider joining our Patreon.
