Who does right-justified anymore, Ray? Everyone knows it should be centered and colored in hot pink, so everyone knows that's where you fade in. Amateurs...

Dang, probably wont be able to do this one.

But I'll read as many as as I can. Great concept! And there should be a lot of good scripts coming from it.

Six pages in and I'm 1/3 of the way into the story. Um...I'd better put a new blade in the box cutter.

Did a little drinking last night and came up with what I think will have to be my concept, as time is running low already.

The good news is that it will qualify for this challenge in every way, but like others are saying, it will be dialogue heavy.

I hope to start writing it tomorrow or Thursday.

Well, with a lot of people saying theirs is dialogue heavy, it might make for some fast reads.  Hopefully Michael's right and those whose are dialogue heavy concentrate on rich dialogue that isn't too expository.

I just ran a script report on mine now, and it ended up being 61% action lines and 39% dialogue.

(Lol.  I've never ran one before.  I guess it is kind of fun to look at your script in those terms.)

Mark, give yourself at least 10 minutes.  It takes that long just to create the PDF and submit it.  I know...I've been there at 11:59 trying to submit it on time.

Wasn't going to write anything, but all the kidding around actually gave me an idea. Won't be about dogs with ticks in their ears though.

Wait a minute!
Hot pink FADE IN!?!?

I could've sworn that we were supposed to put it in rainbow colors:
7 colors of the rainbow, seven characters in "FADE IN:"

ROYGBIV
FADEIN:

Please let me know if this has changed. I'll have to go in and update all my scripts.
