Stupid question time...

I get the object and the location, but for the genre selections is it either or for the two, so horror or crime or does it need to be both, so a crime horror?


Good question. I was thinking the same thing.

That is a good question.
I assumed it was pick one (as there is no point combining comedy with Romcom as you know, there's already comedy in romcom)
So if it is combined, I gotta start again lol

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

Warren and Zack, I was originally giving you the option of choosing either genre, but if you think you blend both, go for it!

And what Matt said. Also, Matt, you don't have to start again.

I'll qualify on the main page - you can use either genre of the same set -

You can elect to write a blend of Crime Horror or a Horror on its own, or a Crime on its own.

You cannot however, combine for example, RomanticComedy with Horror, or SciFi with Comedy etc.

Does this clear this up?

Yeah this...

"One of the following sets of genre" as opposed to one of the genres

And the fact they rom com already has com is what was confusing me.

Thanks, Libby, much happier with one genre.

Wait...so no sci-fi horror???

Sorry, C'thulu, maybe the next one will be cosmic horror.

Do the best you can with the genre allocations in the different sets.

We all know this lot can be mighty specific about whether something follows the brief.

Speaking of not nice, sorry I trashed your naked guy pedo script. If I’d have known it was you, Id’ve been cool with that!

For those of you who are sticklers for the rules, I've made a couple of clarifications on the challenge announcement page, (in blue) and am going to add another re a specific LOCATION.

I want to at least have everyone on the same page, so to speak.

Any other questions, fire away.
As we like to say, there are no stupid questions.

Quoted from Matthew Taylor
Oh man this is tough - I'm guessing no one is going to be doing a Pursuer chase where the talbes turn so I might do another one just to be unique.

Man chases Woman around a pond but she is actually holding a shrinking ray, zaps him and kicks him into the pond where he is eaten by a prize-winning Koi.... that's my idea so if you could all refrain from doing anything similar that would be great

And like that I have a seed of an idea, not sure it will work on the page but it's all I've got to work with so far.

I'll pick up that gauntlet:

Can I have someone else write mine?
