about THE Altt Writers ROom
Get your story pitched to major studios
We’re Altt Productions, a new film production company based in Bristol, UK. Co-founded by Oliver Park, an award-winning horror director with credits at Warner Bros., Lionsgate, and New Line, and Ashley Porciuncula, a creative producer with a background in building innovative, data-driven ventures, Altt is built to merge creative instinct with commercial strategy.
We’re using agile methods to incubate original stories, support new talent, de-risk production, and maximise returns. We’re just starting out, developing unique processes to turn bold ideas into sellable projects - and we’re inviting screenwriters to help us test this approach.
We’re looking for screenwriters who…
Have story ideas they’re ready to put through an experimental process
Can commit time and energy to moving your own projects forward
Are collaborative, resilient, and open to feedback
Want to help shape a new model for developing market-ready stories
While working with us, you’ll take part in a data-driven process that combines audience testing, collaboration with fellow creatives, and feedback from experienced advisors. You’ll work with our team to see how your idea holds up in a commercial testing pipeline, and we’ll guide you through each stage with mentoring and feedback to help your story become as strong as it can be.
If your story makes it through our process, it will be eligible for:
Having a director attached
Funding and full production of a proof-of-concept short film
Professional pitching and representation to major studio distributors like Blumhouse, Lionsgate, New Line, and Warner Bros
This is not employment, or a paid job. If your project moves into production, you’ll receive full market-rate pay plus backend points. You will keep full ownership of your story until it becomes an official company-funded project.
