Suspenseful POV Horror Short Film
Budget: ₹750 – ₹1,250 INR
I’m putting together a short horror film that the viewer experiences as if the camera were their own eyes. Every moment should feel suspenseful and eerie, keeping the audience on edge from the first frame until the final reveal. I’m looking for a screenwriter who can translate this concept into a concise, tightly-paced script that never breaks the first-person illusion.
The finished piece needs to read like a standard industry screenplay—Courier 12 pt, scene headings, action, minimal dialogue—but every action line must be written with the audience’s point of view in mind: what they hear, what they glimpse, and how their unseen “presence” drives the tension.
Deliverables
• 8–12 page screenplay in PDF and an editable format (Final Draft, Fountain, or similar)
• Clear three-act structure that escalates dread without relying on excessive gore
• Sensory cues (sound, limited visuals) that sustain an eerie atmosphere from start to finish
• Original content only, free of copyrighted characters, settings, or dialogue
I’ll share the premise and any production constraints once we begin. Send over samples of previous horror or POV work if you have them; I plan to choose a writer within a week so we can move straight into outlining and drafts.
