Meet Sleeper Hit Studio
Our Story
Who is Sleeper Hit Studio?
Sleeper Hit Studio is a group of like-minded writers and creatives who intimately know the life of the writer — the highs and lows. We are the ones who know how important building connections are in this industry.
Sleeper Hit Studio was founded by writer/director Titus Heckel. Titus is a multi-award-winning filmmaker and screenwriter. He's also a physics nerd and in another life, a trained priest (now of the non-practicing; non-believing variety :-) !
We believe that talent is universal, but opportunity is not. Through a free entry point, early-adoption membership pricing, personalized mentorship, and a supportive community, we're building a world where every aspiring screenwriter can access the guidance they need to succeed.
Our Philosophy
We treat our writers like family
With an unparalleled level of service and care. Every writer who comes through our doors receives honest, rigorous feedback paired with genuine encouragement.
"You have a story you NEED to tell. So stop listening to the nay-sayers and commit to the journey!"
Writer Results
Sharper work is what people remember.
The throughline in these responses is not novelty. It is rigor, clarity, honest feedback, and the feeling that the work finally started moving in the right direction.
Rachel
“Titus combines a high-level approach to feature structure with a boots-on-the-ground work ethic. With his diligence, imagination, honesty and wonderful sense of humour, he'll get you through the challenge of shaping your idea and pouring it onto the page.”
Sarah
“What I loved about Titus's classes, whatever we were talking about Titus made it so fun and interesting and he made it so engaging. And he took something as complicated as how to write a good story and he broke it down into simple and easy steps. I came out of his class a much stronger writer than I was before.”
Peter
“I've learned so much from him and improved immensely as a screenwriter, which I attribute a lot to his honesty. A lot of people told me what I wanted to hear which didn't do me any favors, but Titus told me what I needed to hear. I'm glad that I listened because my script has turned into something that people really enjoy and I could not have done without his help.”
