A 5 page limit would be amazing. Action romcom. Must use five locations. Only one character.  Bring it on. Zack |

Ten page limit, but a penalty of one page for each orphan in the script. |

5 page minimum or maximum? If it's minimum, I'm writing a 93 page short. |
| Some of my scripts:
Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly
I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner
The Gambler (short) - OWC winner
Skip (short) - filmed
Country Road 12 (short) - filmed
The Family Man (short) - filmed
The Journeyers (feature) - optioned

Or take it in another direction. Every block of action has to end in an orphan. |

Don’t forget to make the main (only?) character an orphan. So, rule clarification: does a single-word line count as an orphan, such as BANG! |

Can the orphan be an aspiring writer who hates orphans? |

Since this thread exists - Can someone please inform me of proper OWC etiquette?
As in, reviewing the entries (including my own entry as to not inadvertently highlight which entry is mine), and scoring the entries.
Thank you
Matt |
You must love my entry and vote for it. That's the only rule. The challenge is to figure out which one is mine. |

If the price is right I'll vote whichever way you want me to |

Two steps to writing a good screenplay:
1) Write a bad one
2) Fix it |

Lol!
Also, I vote for a 2-3 page challenge. That's a real challenge, to get a story across in a very short period of time. |
