An ISA Verified Pro is searching for high-concept, addictive primetime soap pilots with dramatic twists, intense power struggles, and heightened stakes. These stories should be low-budget but full of intrigue, with messy characters, tangled relationships, and shocking reveals. 

The ideal project includes fast-paced, tension-filled narratives with escalating drama, a strong ensemble cast with interwoven conflicts, and themes of wealth, ambition, betrayal, and personal reinvention. The Pro is especially interested in soapy, high-drama storytelling that keeps audiences talking week to week.

Recommended comps include: Melrose Place, Dynasty (CW), Revenge, Big Little Lies, and The Morning Show.

Want to have more success with Gigs? Here are some tips from our ISA Executives:

Successful loglines can convey a great deal of information in only one or two sentences. This includes:
A distinct main character that promises a strong emotional arc.
A clear concept and insight into how it will develop in the second act.
An understanding of how your unique character and clever concept are synergizing with one another.
An implicit tone for the project overall.

If you are struggling to encapsulate these elements into a concise logline, then we recommend submitting your project for an ISA Logline Review.
