On Saturday, September 22, InkTip is hosting Pitch & Networking Summit IV.

At the typical pitching event, you only pitch 10 to 15 companies and that’s just not enough. We’re focused on getting your scripts sold, so we’ve changed the writer / company ratio so you pitch an average of 40 companies in a single day and for about the same price.

We are pleased to announce that four more scripts were optioned and another writer was discovered through InkTip!

Joseph Nasser Options "Jasper"
Joseph Nasser with the Nasser Entertainment Group found "Jasper Live Dot Com" on InkTip and optioned it from Samuel Bartlett.  Samuel has written and directed a found footage film, and he's been hired to write a feature for Sam Worthington, but this is his first option through InkTip.

Uffe Ziemelis Options "Ghost Pets"
Uffe Ziemelis with Gefion Media Denmark discovered "Ghost Pets" on InkTip and optioned it from writer Arne Olsen. He now has the project set up with Shine Media and New Regency Entertainment. Arne is already an established studio writer, with such credits as "Red Scorpion" and "Repeaters" to his resume, but this is his first InkTip success.

Victor De La Rosa Options "Rhino"
Victor De La Rosa with the Hollywood Film School found "Rhino" on InkTip and optioned it from Joseph Downey. The feature length comedy about a gifted man is in preproduction now, with a July shoot date set. Barbara Bitela with the Silver Bitela Agency negotiated the deal on behalf of Joseph, whom she also met through InkTip. This is his first feature option and sale.

Jeff Ross Discovers Doug Kissock
Jeff Ross met Doug Kissock through InkTip and signed to represent him as his manager. Long-time InkTip member Jeff Ross Entertainment reps such talent as Larry Cohen (writer of "Phone Booth" with Colin Farrell and "Cellular" with Kim Bassinger) among others. This is Doug's fourth success through InkTip.

Filmax Options "Slasher"
Guillermo Tato Reig with Filmax found "Slasher" on InkTip and optioned it from Brad Helmink. Adrià Monés will executive produce for Filmax, whose principals produced "The Machinist" and "Sleep Tight." Brad Helmink is a director/writer.

Christian Vinces Options "Elixir"
Christian Vinces optioned the short script "Elixir" from writers Lucy Fazely and Cat Stewart after finding it on InkTip.  "Elixir" was based from Cat's short story of the same title. This is the fourth option from InkTip for Lucy. Production for the short is scheduled for late spring.
