looking for help with picking short

Posted by: Higgonaitor, November 15th, 2007, 6:31pm

Hey everyone.

You might have noticed I haven't been to busy on the boards, and that because I've been busy with life.

Right now I'm trying to decide where I want to go to college, and I'm filling out applications and sending them and all that fun stuff.

One place I'm applying to, Drexel, has a contest for a $5,000 scholarship for your best ten pagfe or under screenplay. (http://www.pages.drexel.edu/~ina22/)

I was hoping I might get a little help from you guys in picking which of my short scripts I should polish and submit.

Here are my shorts:

Entrances and Exits

A Very Bad Day

You Win Some, You Lose Some

Pop Goes the Robot

Lactose Intolerance

Pumpkin Love

All the links can be found in my signature under "the rest".

Please help me out, I would greatly appreciate it, and I'm kind of running out of time (deadline=dec. 1) So if you've already read more than one of these, just tell me which one you liked better and which one you didn't like quite as much. Thanks in advance.

-Tyler

Hey Tyler,

Damn, this is one smart move to get people to read your scripts :P

Okay, so I haven't read all of them but I remember really liking "Entrances and Exits".

Cheers
Rob

I know you're kiding, but i really hope people don't think i'm just posting a plea for reads or anything.

Thanks. I think you read the re-write too, which is helpful.

I've read a handful of those, and "Bad Day" had some good moments. But it needs a better title.

Your best work, though, is "Substitute Angels". Lose that singing guy, shorten it up, and your golden.

I don't know If I can make substitute angels ten pages. I suppose I'll try. Thank you very much.

Bad day has gotten a lot of good feedback, that might be the one I end up polishing.
