The current script I'm working on is a creature feature, but it ain't low budget and it ain't set in NYC...but it will ROCK!!
I like the idea of a contest and agree with a few that it needs to be more than a week, so the quality will be better than the dreck that comes out of most OWC's.
If Ron's looking for a feature, does it really make sense to write a 20-30 page short? Probably not.
Ron hasn't responded back with a budget he's looking for either, so maybe he's lost interest in us.
IMO, the creature feature isn't dead, it's just napping. It'll rear its ugly head soon when my new script is completed. You guys just wait...
Ron PM'd me yesterday. There's no deadline, and he was really just feeling things out. He did have interest in the contest, but did not want to build expectations too high.
The reason I suggested 20 to 30 pages was this: that's enough to get a general idea about a story, see if it's worth expanding into a feature. Maybe that can be done with 10 pages, I don't know. 20 to 30 pages is a lot, but as this is not an OWC, it's ok to use stuff you have already in your arsenal and expand it into something monster oriented.
Ron may not come back, who knows. Either way, no one should write a script unless its something they want to have.
Jeff, how bout a sneak preview? A script of a trailer or something.
All I can tell you is that it takes place in numerous western states, finally culminating in Tucson, AZ. It will center around a shape shifter type creature that is thousands of years old, being pursued by FBI agents as well as local cops. It will be an extremely bloody and wild ride...hard R rating - lots of graphic violence, profanity, and of course, nudity and sex.
The title is...
Something in the Way She Moves
Coming soon to a theater near you! Yeah...right...
