Selyna Warren and Marissa Read make up the multi-hyphenate team S&M. We share a love for comedy and want to create content we can act in and direct. We met at a musical theatre conservatory and have been creatively co-dependent ever since. Our brand is R-rated comedy nostalgia. S&M’s first sale was to AwesomenessTV in the form of a streaming teen show called Foursome. Our 4th and last season premiered on Youtube Premium, making it the network’s longest running series. After writing all of Season One, we spent the next 3 seasons as show-runners, EP’s, and eventually added directing to the docket, directing three episodes, including the finale of the latest season. Our feature HAZED reached #1 on the Blklst website and we’ve since optioned this dark high school comedy to Jeremy Garelick’s company, American High. Unbelievably, we won a Google grant to develop a script involving computer science. Neither of us have any experience in computer science. S&M are pumped to have sold a pilot to Nickelodeon, rebooting a favorite series from childhood alongside Ace Entertainment. S&M sold their 1/2 hour dramedy, Bad Apple, to Sony and CounterBalance. We used our proof of concept, that we produced and acted in, to help sell the show. Our latest feature Bat Mitzvah is being developed, again, with CounterBalance. We are so excited to have sold, alongside Rachel Bloom, a love letter to *NSYNC in the form of a big budget feature to Tristar. We are currently rocking development on a kids and family Halloween feature for Jordan Kerner and Storied Media. You can find Selyna acting on the tube on Black-ish, Shameless, Teachers, and Idiot Sitter. Look for Marissa in the indie film What We Can’t Have. You can find S&M in the heart of Burbank, wearing matching outfits, and acting like they’re dating. Both are happily married to other people.
