Welcome Owen,
Visited your site and enjoyed it. You do seem to be a young talented artist with a lot of ambition.

As for wanting to shoot a script from this site, you may want to specify what it is your looking for.

You know...
Length
Genre
budget

Things like that so you could get more percise feedback.

The reason I advice this is because there are thousands of scripts here in every possible mix of cast, budget, lenght, locations. etc...

That would help narrow it down.

Again, welcome and the best of luck to you in your endevers.

Shawn.....><

Yeah. I can't count how many single location scripts I've read here over the last two years. The more specific, the more likely you'll find something tailor made for your needs.

Disaster Strikes A drama about the 2012 end of the world.

Fit A comedy that won 1st at MoviePoet

Unrelated A comedy.

Dangerous World Drama/horror

Sex Doll Drama/sci-fi/comedy

Unprotected Sex Comedy/sick. has been produced once before.

End of the Tour Drama. Has been produced before.

Old Wounds Drama. I attempted to shoot this one myself last summer, but the location turned out to be a bust.

Misdeed A thriller/drama.

In Sickness and in Health Drama�Only old people though.

Daddy's Home Thriller/horror/drama. This one has been made into a machinima and a film. The film showed in S. Africa's horror film festival. One of my own faves.

Well not any longer than about 15 pages. Genre doesn't matter, I'm open to anything! Budget would be like, £200 maximum? Cast, it would be easier for me if they were younger, but it doesn't matter about age really.

Anything else you guys need?

As it happens, the September One Week Challenge was all about low-budget, single location shorts with limited casts. You might want to check them out:

Alrighty  

but hey, I think I have something else here, too, that would be easy to film. If not, then I could get it to you easy enough. I'll have to check.

I'll throw in a few:

Splitzkrieg! - Comedy - Two mischievous 13-year olds suspect their elderly new neighbor is a Nazi war criminal.

Public Access 129 - Comedy - A public access TV host is held hostage on the air by a psychotic prank caller.

Winner Takes All - Comedy - Two men with a checkered past decide to settle the score once and for all - with a game of Monopoly!

Satan's Secret Surprise - Horror - A young possessed couple turns to sacrificial Satanism to rid themselves of their inner demons.

...And I Take You - Celtic Horror - Some people see Jesus.  A few people see Satan.  The rest see Her.


Be excellent to each other

Hey Owen,

The rain knocked the power out and it just came back on, so I thought I'd steer you toward another one of my scripts that you may be interested in, since you liked my other short, "Where There's Smoke".

This one is called, "Monster's Lullaby" and the characters in it are younger.

Here are some scripts that are easily producible on little/no budget:

Orange Menace  A lawyer meets his stupidest client yet in this satire on the state of the judicial system.

Pet Names Short - Two guys try having a serious conversation about renaming their....you know, their junk.  

Anne Goes To Camp  A Hollywood pitch meeting gets extremely dark.
