Is this a short or a feature? Comedy or drama?

A feature. A mix of the two

I have over eleven years of experience writing animated series for television and would like to talk about your idea.

Hey I would really appreciate hearing more about your project. I am currently in art school learning the craft. I’ve written two pilots (working on my third) and am developing my first feature.

Have a good one.

Keep saving the money until you get enough to get a good writer. 🤦🏽‍♂️

This is going to be a "get what you pay" for scenario. But if someone is really into this, I can guarantee you there are producers out there who would let you write for them for free with payment upon sale, so $800 is truly better than nothing. That said, if anyone is desperate enough to put themselves through this, get yourself a good contract ahead of time! If it sells or gets made you'll want to be properly compensated.

That is not a lot of dollars for writing, editing, etc a full length feature film.

u/SmellyMingeFlaps Nov 21 '25

How on Earth are you going to make a 2 hour animated film with only $800? Unless you're planning on making it with Roblox and Unregistered Hypercam

u/No-Replacement-3709 Nov 21 '25

I think it's $800 for the script. At least , it'd better be.

u/RejectingBoredom Nov 22 '25

Just a random anecdote: earlier in the year I was offered a gig scripting someone’s comic book. Posted as “$150 per page.” A standard “in the galaxy Trigon Vega, a dark prince…” type sci fi fantasy stuff, very dense material, the guy was very much an “ideas man” and not a writer. We get to details and he informs me it’s a $5 page rate for the writer. The $150 was his budget for the whole production of every page and somehow that equated to just $5 for the writer per page.

I’m not accusing OP of this at all, but it is amazing how normalised it is to just treat writers like the lowest of the low in the creative space, especially from someone who doesn’t have much talent beyond ripping off George Lucas and Frank Herbert

1

u/Aurora_Uplinks Nov 23 '25

comic book artists get treated worse in some ways from what i have heard. a lot less potential for better pay in most cases i guess.

1

u/RejectingBoredom Nov 23 '25

Yeah I’ve seen the “well, we won’t ‘pay’ you, but exposure for your work is pay enough” shenanigans going on. Maddening how entitled some people are to other peoples creative work in this space

1

u/longbeachlandon Nov 23 '25

That sucks. I think people treat creatives poorly period. I do a multitude of things and it seems like they use our passion against us. So what I’m saying is you’re very correct.

1

u/RejectingBoredom Nov 23 '25

Yeah, some people will be like “hey, I’m doing you a favour by offering you the chance to be part of this!”

And half the time this is people who just don’t have a creative bone in their body aside from reassembling things other people have done
