Alright! glad to see this up here.

This script was written for a finals project for my film history class. This was the shooting script for a short film I have produced and edited as well, for the same class. The films production went on for three nights DURING finals week so it was probably the most rushed shoot that i've ever done (being obvious in a few moments during the actual movie).

The script was more of a venting out for me. It was a way to release all the stuff i have held back from a previously destroyed relationship i've had, so more than anything it was a very personal night for me when I wrote this short script.

If this is enjoyed enough I can easily turn this into a feature film script, but since I was limited to keeping the story short so it would be filmable for my presentation, I had to take out alot of the mystery and character building and cut it straight to the point.


Thanks for reading and leave feedback! I'm not much of a die hard fan of format or writing a formulaic screenplay but please leave your thoughts on what you liked or what could have been better. Maybe even what could be added to a feature length version.

You might get a better response if you post your script in PDF or DOC format.  Not sure what an FDR file is - something to do with the New Deal?

It's a Final Draft document.  I sent a rich text format version in about 4 days ago, so i'm getting that problem fixed. So, hopefully i'll get more responses.

Alright, to view the RTF version of this script, you have to search on the main page for "Glass Man".

The FDR version is still on this message board but the RTF version is the one featured on the main page.

Thank for reading!
