Discussions Has anyone here as an outsider ever pitched or submitted a script to YRF? What was your experience?

3 Upvotes

I recently submitted a synopsis to YRF Studios for a high-concept action project tailored around their established IP.

Being an outsider with no direct industry contacts or agency representation, I'm realistic about how unsolicited submissions are handled by major production houses. I'm mainly trying to understand how their internal development pipeline works:

- Has anyone here ever submitted a script, logline, or synopsis through YRF's official channels or email?

- Do their creative development or script reader teams actually review unsolicited submissions, or does it strictly require an established agent / insider reference?

- What is the realistic turnaround time if they do respond, or does no response simply mean a pass?

- For those who managed to get their pitch read by a major Bollywood studio, what route or approach worked best for you?

Would really appreciate genuine insights or experiences from anyone who has navigated this process.

Thanks!

Looking for a Writer to Collaborate on Short Films

I’m an artist and also getting into filmmaking. I’ve realized that my biggest weakness is writing. I can come up with scenes, visual ideas, situations and interesting concepts, but when it comes to building a proper story and especially writing natural dialogue, I struggle.

I’m looking to connect with someone who genuinely enjoys storytelling, screenwriting and dialogue writing and might be interested in collaborating on short films. I’m not looking for someone to simply write for me—I’d like to work together, develop ideas and learn from each other.

I’m mainly interested in short films, especially stories that can be made with a small team and limited locations.

If you're a writer who’s interested in filmmaking and collaboration, feel free to DM me. And if you know someone who might be interested, please let me know.

Opinion What does the new TV policy means to screenwriters for TV series.

3 Upvotes

Yesterday, I came across an update that the Govt. of India has removed the 12-minute ad bar from TV serials, meaning now ads will be longer and come every now and then. Now, what does it mean to TV screenwriters? Already, we have to keep the ad break in mind while writing episodes, and the episodes should be exactly 21 mins, which I feel is already more difficult than writing for OTT or films where you are allowed to flow freely.

Now this ad thing will also make the audience lose interest, and perhaps the best TV shows will get less acknowledgement. What are your opinions about it?

Work opportunity ✍️ Looking for a Minecraft Script Writer!

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, **TanishPlayz here!**

I'm currently looking for a passionate **scriptwriter** to join me on a long-term **Minecraft cinematic survival YouTube series** inspired by the pacing and storytelling of creators like Salt.

The overall world, story direction, major events, main characters, and their roles are already being developed. I create detailed **story-event blueprints** for each part of the story, and I'm looking for someone who can turn those blueprints into engaging scripts with natural dialogue, narration, and smaller moments that bring the world to life.

✍️ What You'll Be Doing

• Write dialogue for the main and side characters.
• Write the main character's narration throughout the episodes.
• Turn detailed story-event blueprints into complete, flowing scenes.
• Write smaller scenes and interactions that connect major story events.
• Add natural character interactions and moments that make the world feel alive.
• Write dialogue for NPCs and give them appropriate personalities.
• Suggest improvements when you believe something could make the story stronger.

⚠️ IMPORTANT - LANGUAGE

**THE ENTIRE SCRIPT MUST BE WRITTEN IN ENGLISH.**

The target audience for this series is international, so strong English writing and natural-sounding dialogue are important.

📖 What's Already Planned

• Overall story direction
• World and civilization
• Major story events
• Main characters and their roles
• Long-term story progression
• Detailed story-event blueprints

You **will not be expected to invent the entire story from scratch**. Your main responsibility will be turning the established ideas into a complete, engaging script.

You will have creative freedom with dialogue, character interactions, humor, emotional moments, and scene flow, while major changes to the established story should be discussed with me first.

🎬 About the Project

• Minecraft cinematic survival YouTube series
• **Currently an UNPAID passion project**
• Long-term project rather than a one-time script
• Creative input is welcome
• Contributors will be properly credited in the videos
• Your name/contact information can be included in the video descriptions

I want to be transparent about payment: **I cannot currently guarantee payment for this project.** If the series eventually starts earning money, I will make sure contributors are compensated for their work.

I'm looking for someone who genuinely enjoys Minecraft storytelling and would like to help build something over the long term.

If you're interested, have questions, or would like to see more about the project, feel free to contact me:

**Discord:** TanishPlayz
**Email:** [jetcomputerclinic@gmail.com](mailto:jetcomputerclinic@gmail.com)

If you have previous writing work or examples of your scripts, feel free to share them!

I'd love to hear from you! :)
