MAKING THEM FEEL
We help you get what’s inside, out.
Our creative approach is based on vulnerability, honesty and authenticity. Compelling work stems from an understanding of how you want your audience to feel. We build that feeling into something real.
And to us, style matters just as much as substance. So whether we are crafting your winning pitch, or producing share-worthy content for your brand, WASTEPAPER tells stories that inspire imagination.
HOW WE OPERATE
WASTEPAPER offers two principal creative services:
TREATMENT WRITING — Crafting bespoke text to help production companies win commercial pitches and land creative commissions. By directors, for directors.
ANALOGUE CONTENT — Producing timeless films, images and collectible works, for brands, platforms, artists and institutions. For distribution in the real world, on social media, in the metaverse, and beyond.
WE WRITE TREATMENTS
01
COMMERCIAL PITCH WRITING
“Clear, precise and no bullshit. With the heart of a street poet.”
This is the WASTEPAPER voice, as described by one of our clients.
We get it. You’re busy with other jobs. The turnaround is too tight. Or perhaps writing just isn’t your strong suit. Whatever the case, every director needs a treatment writer they can rely on.
Wherever you’re at in your process, WASTEPAPER can find the words to turn your idea into a winner. We can mould those nebulous ideas into impactful, emotive writing with a distinct voice. We’re happy to sculpt the tone of the projects, or take on a director’s unique writing style.
We’re directors too, so we know the drill. We’re just as comfortable hooking a reader with arresting poeticism as we are getting into the nitty gritty of aspect ratios and anamorphic lenses. We understand producers; we understand agencies; we understand clients. We know there’s a lot of voices in the room – we’ll make sure yours cuts through.
02
A.I. IMAGE GENERATION
WASTEPAPER has been at the forefront of A.I. image generation from the beginning. First it was a playground. Then it was an experiment. Now it’s a tool we wield confidently… but it’s still an adventure.
Sometimes you can’t quite find the right reference. Or you need to mock-up a concept that is one-of-a-kind. That’s where we step in.
Our practice within A.I. generation has been honed towards creating cinematic, photorealistic imagery from a filmmaker’s perspective. Whether your idea is real-worldly or otherworldly, we can generate filmic concept art that brings your vision to life with a sense of realism and wonder.
We understand both the boundless opportunity and frustrating limitations of A.I. generation. It’s not for every job, bit when it is, it’ll take your breath away.
(Psst… all the images in this section are A.I. generated by WASTEPAPER)
LONGFORM
03
Story is at the heart of everything we do.
It is the WASTEPAPER DNA.
We put that DNA to good use by offering story consultation on your longform ideas. Films, TV series, documentaries, podcasts – all are welcome.
This consultation can take the form of script coverage, bible creation, story editing or creative development. Whatever the project calls for, if you have a story to share with the world, WASTEPAPER can help you tell it at its best.

WASTEPAPER is not a production company. Or a digital media agency. Think of us more like a boutique creative workshop.
Make it stand out.
We specialise in creating content and creative roll-outs with an analogue ethos. Combining a timeless aesthetic with resonant messaging, WASTEPAPER handcrafts work that lingers, both on the feed and IRL.
Maybe you have a detailed brief. Or some nebulous concepts. Perhaps the daunting blank page is staring right back at you…We can find your story.
WASTEPAPER brings your best ideas to life.
