A 7wc would be nice. I get a feeling that a lot of people will enter |

Is that the full length version of your moviepoet script?
|
No, this is sort of an assignment job. They probably cannot wait 7 weeks though. If I remember correctly, we usually get 8 or 12 people participating. Since my blackout script was picked up, I have a new fondness of the 7WC. I thought everyone did a good job on the last one. |

I would probably do a 7wc if one started soon. I happen to be trying to figure out what I want do next anyway. With 7wc's, is there a topic? Or we just do what we want? |

In the past, we went with a specific theme and genre. Actually the 1st one we did was open as far as genre went. The theme was Christmas however. The 2nd one we did we chose a theme and genre that to different production companies had been asking for on InkTip thriller/amnesia.
I'm game to do another one, however, I may not be able to follow your chosen theme and genre. what I like about these challenges is that we sort of try to help each other out and when we get stuck there other people that are willing to help you move forward again. As far as I know no one has been unable to finish a feature in the assigned time so far. |

I don't believe there is any possibility of me completing a script in 7 weeks, but I'm game to try. |

I'm probably game for almost any genre, as long as it's not too weird. Two pages a day Rick, no prob for you. You probably have ideas swirling already.
Pale Yellow will probably write 3 or 4 entries! |

I can come up with ideas at will.
Actually getting anything on the page is an absolute battle. |

There will still be a 7wc after the OWC and for the 7wc we will pick one of the Ink Tip requests as our genre/topic. Just so you know. |

I did the 7WC that Pia referenced before, in November 2009.
I actually finished the script in 6 weeks! It was great having the pressure of the deadline, and made me get my finger out of my arse. The script I wrote, 'Headlong' came out pretty good, and is my strongest piece of work so far.
The good thing about the challenge is the help we can give each other, which someone mentioned above.
So if the genre and theme suit you - give it a go!! |

I'm up for a 7 week challenge.
Now if I actually can meet that challange is a whole other thing.
I've got some great idea floating around upstairs. The question is can I translate them down on paper without the final product look as if it was written by someone with an IQ of 65. |

How does the 7wc work? Do we just get a genre and theme and have to finish it in 7 weeks or are there steps? Like 15 pages at the end of the first week, etc... |
| 'Artist' is not a term you should use to refer to yourself. Let others, and your work, do it for you. |

It's a big complex procedure with 27 different steps and the instructions are inscrutable. Kind of like Ikea. Hopefully you know I'm kidding. We get the genre/theme/topic and then write a feature in 7 weeks. Then we read them (that's usually the hardest part ) But enough about the 7wc - I just wanted to make sure you knew it was planned. Let's concentrate on getting this OWC happening. |

Haha
The only reason I ask is because my biggest problem is that without steps like that, I will surely leave 120 pages for the last day. |
