Quoted from Reef Dreamer Like mo, I don't seem to get the newsletters now. Humm. As I haven't got the newsletter I don't know which Philip has also been selected.

It's Phil Whitcroft with his nifty script, A Halloween Carol.
Kev's is the 1979 deal! And it's a good way to go.
Perks of Being a Wallflower was a big indie hit that's a high school period piece.

I've got both scripts, if anyone needs them, give me a shout.
My Dropbox-fu is very low. Maybe that would be easier for someone else to set up?
Regardless, I'll send them to everyone that wants them.
Let's get our guys in the spotlight for some big boy pants reviews!

E.D.

Thanks for all your support. It'll be fun to see how this plays out. Hopefully both our scripts can get a turn in the spotlight.

Congrats to all. I don't know anything about scriptshadow, don't even understand what these weeks mean but seems like it's a desired place to be and very few scripts get there (still have a very vague idea about "there"). Anyway, congrats and best of luck to ED, Kevin and Philip!

Congrats to Kev and Phil!

I dont have a copy of Philips script but do have Kevins 'Goon'. As Phil said maybe they both get exposure somehow.

HGW

P.S. Like a few others I dont get the newsletter either and I've been trying for maybe a month now lol.

Congrats to both Philip and Kevin. Awesome to see two SSer's in the mix.

The newsletter has been a funny one in recent weeks. I did receive one this week and Carson said something about being sick so I don’t know how much of an impact that had? On the same note, I didn’t receive one last week so who knows…

Anyway, good luck to both Philip and Kev.

The newsletters come out in spurts. Like Kevin always gets his three days before I get mine. I think they send them out in sections.

Yeah, strange. An hour after Kevin and Coop forwarded it to me, I got the same email from Carson.

If you want Phil's script, give a shout!

To the Simply Scripts faithful,

Let's give the two candidates our full support!
I've already turned in my notes to Carson.

Have you?

Need a script? Give me a holler.
The Tuck script ain't half bad, so lets get the good word out about our own talent!

Regards,
E.D.

Hey E.D. yeah for sure. Thanks!

Quoted from Hugh Hoyland Hey E.D. yeah for sure. Thanks! HGW

Let's make some noise for our esteemed candidates, Kev and Phil, this week!

E.D.

So, what's the rumpus?

Did anyone get a mailer yesterday?
Would love to know how our boys fared.
Shout out if you've got word please.

Regards,
E.D.

Haven't gotten anything yet, either.  Between the tail end of the flu, and the upcoming shorts week, my guess is that Carson's just overwhelmed right now.

BTW - CONGRATS to both Kev and Phil for getting their scripts up there!  I can personally say I've read Kev's script back when it was called Goon - and it's a neat twist on High Noon (incorporating a number of quirky kid subcultures back in the 70s.)  

Well, I guess we'll have to wait to the end of the week about our AF candidates.
Carson's revealing his fave short on Friday.
So I guess there's no amateur feature review this week.
Looks like Kev and Phil have to keep holding their breath!

I hope everyone voiced their thoughts on the scripts.
If not, looks like there's still time to chime in.

E.D.

Looking through the shorts articles so far this week.
I've noticed two days in a row, Carson's complained about "taking heads" shorts.

He speaks of them with such disdain, but I think he's forgetting something...
Production Feasibility.
Futuristic time travel steampunk silent shorts - expensive.
Zombie tiger hordes attacking - expensive.

I hope his readers don't get the wrong idea here.
That they have to write mega budget shorts to get noticed.
