An industry contact is searching for thriller and mystery pilots that are tailored for modern streaming platforms. These projects have binge-worthy, serialized narratives. They are particularly excited to read thrillers that boast rich character development, intricate plots, and edge-of-your-seat tension. 

The tone should be suspenseful and seductive, while the storytelling should be layered and designed to appeal to a broad audience. Sub-genres are welcome, including erotic thrillers, spy thrillers, pure mysteries, and thrillers in unexpected genres. 

Recommended comps include Killing Eve, The Night Manager, Bodyguard, The Undoing, and Hannibal.

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.

Ordering other forms of ISA Feedback can help your screenplay succeed in the highly competitive Writing Gigs environment. A writer with a track record of steadily seeking out notes and improving their portfolio is highly appealing to industry professionals.

A variety of feedback forms can be found via our Script Notes Services.
