Hey Creators! This just in! Submissions are now open for our new horror initiative with Tubi! Emerging and established writers with a feature script in the horror genre are encouraged to submit their project for further consideration in the Tubi x Black List Horror Initiative. Submissions will remain open until June 30, 2026 – write that deadline down now and get to work, writers! Tubi intends to produce and distribute the selected script. The Black List will executive produce the project and will be collaborating closely with Tubi throughout the entirety of the program. Writers are welcome to upload new projects for consideration in this program. This is not my genre. I usually write either romance or psychological thrillers but hmm...I am in a screenwriting workshop on Monday evenings...perhaps I should brainstorm a horror film. I do have a screenplay I finished last year but it's more cyber thriller than horror. I wonder if I can tweak that concept to make it more horro? I'll have to brainstorm with Skye because God knows I've had enough nightmares in my lifetime so I should be able to write one. lol Just for fun...title the poster below! This is where everyone thinks we are headed anyway.

(Originally shared in another community—posting here for those not plugged into that thread, because this one’s too juicy to miss! LOL) So apparently Brett Johnson—the guy who used to make millions stealing identities before he found Jesus (or at least LinkedIn)—is warning us about the next wave of cyber threats. Spoiler alert: it’s not some Hollywood hacker in a hoodie; it’s AI doing the dirty work at industrial scale. ________________________________________ Here’s the boil down of his three horsemen of the Fraudpocalypse: • Deepfakes 🎙️ → Forget Nigerian princes. Now it’s your “CEO” calling with a perfect voice clone asking you to wire money. • Scam farms 🏭 → Organized fraud sweatshops, now turbocharged by AI. Think call centers, but instead of selling you extended car warranties, they’re running mass scale scams with scripts written by ChatGPT’s evil twin. • Synthetic IDs 🪪 → Frankenstein identities stitched together from real and fake data. They slip past banks and credit checks like butter. And Johnson’s “solutions”? The usual corporate kumbaya: • Use multi factor authentication (because hackers love when you add one more step before they steal your stuff). • Freeze your credit (translation: lock the barn after the horse has already been deepfaked). • Don’t overshare online (LOL, good luck telling that to TikTok zombies). • Verify before you trust (which is basically “don’t be dumb,” but dressed up as advice). ________________________________________ 🎯 My Take Cybercrime isn’t just evolving—it’s scaling like a startup 🚀. AI is the new intern, except it doesn’t complain about unpaid overtime while it’s busy writing scam scripts and generating fake passports.

Evening all, just wanna check around and see what others have worked on. I've worked on lots' of content using a gamut of every AI tools and models out there in the content i create. I'm still stretching an trying to fine tune the craft. Here's my YT Channel https://www.youtube.com/@syncx.studio, I primarily focus on k-pop music videos (currently have an IP for a new tv series based on the popularity of k-pop from Netflix Demon Hunter series), My son grad from CalState LA (film/media) is an addicted gamer so I started a channel for him @syncx.gameroom and my youngest grad from Univ. of LaVerne in Creative Writing has a channel @syncx.stories. Oh @syncx.AIlibrary is my collection of prompts i wrote and wanna share. Everyone's input is much appreciated. 🙂

Hey Creators, If you are available in 50 minutes, I will be having a live Q&A and announcing a major update with me and AI on the zoom. Pop in and come say hi. See you then. Link in the calendar section.
