MitchellBogatz	Who do I talk to about joining the creative team? Jun 2 2009, 5:10 PM EDT \| Post edited: Jun 2 2009, 5:10 PM EDT I have a few script samples to show and have worked with proffesionals in screenwriting before. Is there a number or email I could contact the fringe staff interview people with? Does anybody know? Post reply Do you find this valuable? Keyword tags: None

I don't know about contacting the actual Fringe staff, but you could check the Fringe and Fox websites, or e-mail askfox@fox.com Post reply Do you find this valuable?
movie_chick7	2. RE: Who do I talk to about joining the creative team? Jun 3 2009, 10:44 PM EDT I dont think they take fan scripts... But my guess would defently e-mail askfox@fox.com they would know for sure... and if not then you can always write fan fiction <3 Post reply Do you find this valuable?

As for contacting the creative team if you find out how to contact J.J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman or Roberto Orci they could help you out.... but finding a way to e-mail them would be tricky.... I wish you all the best and i hope some of this has helped you out <3 Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Start talking to other show writers, find out how they got their jobs. Start networking and quit asking the clueless (including myself) here what you should do. I don't know what you have done professionally, but if you have never written for a show before, be prepared to pay some dues; you may not start as a writer right away or you may not get to write for the show you really, really want to. And make your resume completely mind blowing if you get the opportunity to send it any of the Fringe producers. Be creative, think mini ARG and be completely original. You are not going to impress anyone if your resume is a Fringe clone. Also be aware that you and the other 50 million fans that have written scripts are trying to get them into Abrams' hands; that even if they like your script it may not be used since they already have all of the major story arcs planned. Most importantly, good luck! Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Just didn't find any full length scripts on the site is all. But thanks for trying. Post reply Do you find this valuable?
WRELM	12. RE: Who do I talk to about joining the creative team? Jul 29 2009, 11:13 AM EDT I have a similar in quarry but not particularly as a full fledged writer. I specialize in creature character design, more specifically feesable creatures. I am a fan of the show and would be more then happy to consult with the writers on giving them some elaborate critters to challenge their characters with. You can't have to many wonderfully creepy creatures right? www.WRELM.com Post reply Do you find this valuable?
