Please do not send scripts, books or movie ideas via email, Facebook, or in the mail. Based on the counsel of our legal team, the Kendrick Brothers do not accept any unsolicited story or script submissions, even for review. Please know that we understand exactly how it feels to have so many great ministry and story ideas that we wish could be made into movies. However, we already have many ideas and movie plots waiting in our prayer incubator! Pray for us rather than sending us your idea or script.

We are not currently accepting applications for potential actors, crew members, or for employment within the company.
Thank you for your interest, but at the current time, we are not looking for or accepting music (songs, lyrics or scores).
Premiere Speakers handles all speaking requests for Alex and Stephen and for many other members of the cast from our movies.
We encourage you to contact our ministry friends at FOCUS ON THE FAMILY  or FAMILYLIFE. We also recommend that you connect with your local church. If you aren’t currently involved in a local church, we recommend the church finder feature at www.truelife.org.
PRAY FIRST: Filmmaking is very influential, and you will be held accountable by God for the influence of your films. It is very important to prayerfully consider the cost before aspiring to become a filmmaker.
 
RESEARCH AND EXPERIMENT: We recommend that you start in a low-risk, low-cost situation by shooting and editing short videos. Learn the art of basic storytelling. Try to inform, inspire, or make people laugh or cry in less than five minutes. Then slowly make bigger and longer movies as your skills develop. Begin to build your own library of filmmaking books, websites, and resources. Check out the book OUTSIDE HOLLYWOOD by Isaac Botkin and the great links, books, and articles on Isaac’s website.
 
ATTEND TRAINING EVENTS: We recommend that you attend the Christian Worldview Film Festival as a great place to feature your work, receive training, and network with other Christian filmmakers.
