Adam Prince
Producer
WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR:
HISTORICAL/PERIOD, DRAMA, ACTION/ADVENTURE, HORROR, THRILLER, WESTERN, SCI-FI/FANTASY for scripted formats with strong, relatable characters and an original twist. Tales that entertain but at their heart are about important ideas and current and/or timeless themes.
