Ampersands
Synopsis/Details:
Subtitle: The Strange Little Creatures Living at Big Jay's Superstore
While exploring the Milky Way, a race of itsy-bitsy, fun-loving aliens called Ampersands decide to visit Earth. The problem is, their spaceships plunk down a ventilation shaft right into a huge retail supercenter!
"Well, I guess this is Earth! Not much to it, is there?"
When the itsy-bitsy humanoids realize that this isn't all our planet has to offer, they have to figure out how to escape, maybe with the help of a couple of teen Earthlings who work the night shift there. Otherwise, they risk living the rest of their days pilfering fish food from the Pet Department and dodging Earthlings trying to squash them like bugs or buy them for toys.
If you'd like to view this fun story, which includes a serious message about honesty and friendship mixed in with the humour (and the numerous product placement opportunities), I look forward to sending it to you. (Also available as Pilot + Episode One)

The Writer: Steve Garry
I'm actively pursuing attachments for my smaller scale projects before I work my way up. While the status of my scripts here may read 'For Sale', I'm just as likely to be seeking producers/talent/investors to collaborate with as a co-producer, wherein I'd be bringing my screenplay as well as package elements and maybe even some money to the table. In addition, with a decade of pitching behind me and being read hundreds of times, I may have connections to enhance the resources that you have available. Don't hesitate to approach me with this in mind. Flexibility, creativity and unconventional collaborations are sometimes necessary to reach our goals. Go to bio
