Amazon Studios Offers Resources for New Screenwriters
Here’s one niche market Amazon aims to conquer that you may not have heard about – Amazon Studios. Quietly launched by Bezos a few years ago, Amazon Studios offers some incredible features for aspiring artists, producers, screenwriters, writers, storytellers, and anyone looking to break into the film industry.
“Amazon Studios is looking for the next great movie idea. We work with visionary storytellers to produce bold, original movies that could become somebody’s favorite film of the year. Our open-door policy means everyone from aspiring writers to WGA members can submit ideas online, no strings attached.”
An All-Inclusive Option for Aspiring Artists
You don’t have to be a master screenwriter to use Amazon Studios. Anyone who has a script, a story idea, or even just a vision is welcome to submit their work via Amazon Studios.
With Amazon Studios, creative individuals have a variety of options to get their scripts, stories and ideas out into the world and in front of the right people. The platform accepts written scripts for both TV series and film. Concept videos are also accepted through the website.
Currently, Amazon Studios is focusing on the production of new, cutting-edge TV series. The platform calls for groundbreaking series ideas and scripts, specifically requesting script submissions in comedy, drama and children’s genres.
The App: Amazon Screenwriter
Yes, of course – there’s an app for Amazon Studios. Amazon Storywriter is a free screenwriting app with cloud-based storage that allows writers to store unlimited scripts to write distraction-free. With Amazon Storywriter, writers can create, revise, export and submit their screenplays easily and efficiently.
Just like the Amazon marketplace provides tools for online merchants, Amazon Studios provides all the resources necessary for aspiring artists looking to break into the film industry. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned pro, Amazon Studios may be a great option to explore if you’d like to get your scripts and stories out there for people to enjoy.
