Green Grass in development

After a writing hiatus, Aram has spent the early part of 2023 developing a slate of short films, including Green Grass, story set within the D/deaf community, and has been devised with guidance from Deaf Talent Collective

The vision is to make this with a 50:50 split of D/deaf and hearing crew, across HoD and supporting roles. This will also be Aram's first carbon negative production, and is being produced by Makenna Guyler.

TV screenplay wins UK contest

Filmarket Hub's 2021 winner of 'Best English Language TV Pilot Screenplay' went to Aram Atkinson, with his script Sunrise Meets Sunset. Selected by Nish Panchal (Literary Agent at Curtis Brown), Philip Shelley (Script Consultant, Producer and Head of 4 Screenwriting) and Vinay Patel (BAFTA nominated Screenwriter).

Set in the smokey jazz bars of 1960s London, Sunrise Meets Sunset is a raw drama that was praised by Development Executives from FilmNation (Arrival and The King's Speech) and Sunny March (founded by Benedict Cumerbatch).
