    Submissions Due: 12/15/2025

    The comic relief (HA-HA-HA), the vibe guy. Not malicious, just empty. He exists entirely in reaction...a filler character in the dream who thinks he’s the main one. His humor buys him temporary protection from the unraveling illusion, but he, too, is part of the rot.

    A PLASTIC-COLD-SHINY influencer. The friend who’s always in motion. She is confident, sharp, and slightly intimidating. Lisa’s the loudest presence, the one who insists everyone’s having fun. But her energy has edges; every laugh a bit too loud, every selfie a little too curated. When her reflection... [See More]

    Submissions Due: 12/15/2025

    Handsome in a way that photographs well but feels tired up close. A beefy, BEEF.y Fred Jones smashed with James Hurley from Twin Peaks. The kind of LA guy who’s read Nietzsche once and won’t stop quoting him. His masculinity is performative all posturing and poetic self-destruction. When the night t... [See More]

    She looks like she belongs in an ad. Pollyanna-like think...clean, bright, sym·met·ri·cal. But there’s a flicker behind her eyes that doesn’t match the smile. Sarah is the image everyone else sees when they think Los Angeles youth: tanned, content, unbothered. Yet when she meets the gaze of the home... [See More]

Project Notes

Start Date(s): Feb 25-28 (tentative, definitely end of February) Location: Los Angeles Rate: Copy, Credit, Meal, Transportation money (Local to LA), Individual Reel ABOUT THE FILMMAKER: Sam Romersa is a writer and filmmaker hailing from Modesto, California. The car theft and almond capital of the world and, of course, home of George Lucas. It's said that a filmmaker makes the same film over and over again. The films Sam make is different shades of focusing on identity. Who are we? What does it mean to be "someone"? What significance lies with those attributes we claim and those we leave on the table? Romersa is known for her surreal and colorful visuals, often leaning into the absurd to explore offbeat narratives with a bold, unconventional voice. She is currently working on her first feature film and has just completed her fourth short film, Pulp Caviar. Her growing body of work includes Smoking in Circles (2023), Mars in Nude (2023), and the upcoming Who Am I? (2025). Beyond short films, Sam’s creative reach extends into music videos and theatrical productions, including her participation in the LA Fridge Festival. ABOUT THE PRODUCERS: Sam Thonis has a long background in news and short-form documentary production, having worked in-house at The Verge, Mic, and The Outline as a director and executive producer, and at Bloomberg as the Global Head of Digital Video. He recently made the move to narrative production, joining the passionate and supremely talented team of filmmakers at Brainzap. Patrice Yip is a producer based in NY, with a background in dance and a passion for storytelling shaped by her international upbringing. She has written, directed, and produced two short films: one sponsored by W Labs and another funded by XR Motion, and she now works as a producer at Brainzap Productions. An NYU Economics graduate, Patrice has contributed to over 100 projects across departments, blending creative vision with sharp production management in collaborations with companies like Sony, Columbia Records, Scheimpflug, Lost and Found, W Lab, and XR Motion.
