I'm a producer currently packaging a horror-comedy short and looking to attach a director with strong comedic instincts and a genuine feel for gaming and streaming culture.
FAME MONSTERS follows five streamers who are sponsored to play a mysterious medieval game live on air. Each wrong answer eliminates a player. As the rounds progress, the ensemble of deeply online characters have their interpersonal dynamics fall apart — hilariously and horribly — in front of their live audiences. The script is written.
The tone sits somewhere between Bodies Bodies Bodies and Deadstream. The comedy comes entirely from the characters: five very specific people whose professional jealousy, ego, and performative personalities are exposed in real time.
This is a screenlife production shot entirely through webcams and game interfaces. No location requirements, you can work remotely. The work is entirely focused on performance, tone, and the visual language of the game itself.
The goal is festival submissions to Nightmares Film Festival and Brooklyn Horror Film Festival in October 2026. Funding is secured and the production is designed to move quickly given the format.
