You'll walk away with a character blueprint you can use tonight. 👉 Primal Forge GPT Step 2: Introduce yourself. Drop a quick post in the community: → Where you're from → What you're working on → What movies and characters do you absolutely LOVE. And what's the ONE thing about your character that's driving you crazy. And what do you LOVE about them? Let us know. We read every single one! Step 3: Jump on a live New Member zoom. Bring your first five pages and let's see where you are on your writing journey. Find it here: New Member Orientation/Hot Seat Coaching Show up for yourself and build some accountability.

Hey, I'm Martin, I go by "MX Bell". I'm a writer/director currently looking to get my first feature off the ground (we have/had a sales agent sign up my WW1 horror TRENCHFOOT but they haven't yet secured any pre-sales for it). I have some very storied EPs who are behind me as a writer/director but we're struggling to get financing for my projects because I'd be a first-time feature (and live action) director. I've a long history of working in animation and VFX for blockbuster films, I was visualisation supervisor for the upcoming Apple series NEUROMANCER, for example; and I was VFX Art Director on DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE. Currently on the new SUPERMAN. I use Unreal Engine for my work and run a Youtube channel, Realtime Workflows, where I teach people how to use the Engine for filmmaking. I'm working on a feature film which I'm making basically myself in the engine and broadcasting the process live on the channel. I've made quite a rod for my own back as I haven't actually written the feature yet -- that's on my to-do list the next couple of weeks! When I heard about this group I realised this is the sort of space I need, where I can focus on the creative. So much of my time seems to go on the business side of things these days. Heading to Cannes tomorrow, as I do every year, to try to expand my network, spread word about my projects, and be seen and have fun really. I'll leave you with the award-winning short I made by myself in Unreal a few years ago. Thanks for reading this far if you made it!
