Screenwriter for Christian Film - A DEAL WITH THE DEVIL

Job ID: 39767747

Budget: $30 – $100 USD

Hello. My name is Mr. Theo, and I am a new filmmaker and scriptwriter who enjoys the directing process the most. Due to my busy schedule, I am looking for a talented screenwriter to help me complete a compelling Christian film project titled "A Deal with the Devil ". (title tentative to future changes) to fit the plot.

I have developed the first three scenes in a revised prose format and am seeking a writer to develop the rest of the screenplay. This is not just a religious film; it is a deep, dramatic story rooted in core Christian values, designed to be both spiritually impactful and highly engaging for a modern audience.
NOTE: As the screenwriter, you would be allowed to make your own suggestions and additions to the storyline. We are a team, so I'll expect you to handle it like it were yours.

Project Goals:

Genre: Christian drama with elements of suspense and a psychological thriller.

Themes: The film explores themes of success, pride, spiritual warfare, and family, emphasizing the importance of heeding spiritual warnings.

Tension & Plot Twists: The story MUST be filled with tension, multiple plot twists, and a compelling climax that keeps the audience guessing at every turn.

Character Development: The script must contain strong, dynamic characters, particularly Joel, a successful CEO whose pride in his accomplishments blinds him to the spiritual warnings of his wife, Rebecca.

Tone: The final script should be compelling, rich in Christian values, thought-provoking, and deeply resonant with audiences looking for a film that challenges and inspires their faith.

Your Role:
You will take the provided prose and transform it into a full-length screenplay, either for a feature film or an episodic series.

Feature Film: Approximately 1.5-hour runtime.

Episodic Format: 3-4 episodes, each with a 45-minute runtime.

Qualifications:

This project is open to both seasoned professionals and dedicated newcomers with a few years of screenwriting experience.

You must be able to prove your work. As a non-negotiable part of the application process, please provide a sample of a script you have written in the correct format for a film or TV series. This can be a project where you were a screenwriter, or any public screenplay you have written that I can access.

If you have the skills and passion to bring this powerful story to life, please apply with an attachment of a sample of your work or a link to access it, or a movie that you did the screenwriting for. I look forward to hearing from you! Note: This is time sensitive, so once we move on, you'll have strict deadlines to meet.
