Hello everyone,

I am looking for a screenplay (from this board only), to shoot in around February. I am a BEGINNER at this, I donot know what the film will turn out like. It will be a group of my friends.

Here are the requirements:

The script will be acted by students (13-16 year olds), so if don't mind you screenplay being acted by youth, then read onward!

It must either be Drama/Horror/Thriller and must have a good shock/suspence value. It should not contain guns!

You will NOT get payed for the script, i'm just looking for a good script that I can create.

The budget for the film will be 1500 DENARS ( £15 ). But, since everything is majorly cheap in Macedonia, I shall probarbly be able to buy all the props needed. Maximum I can raise to is 2000 DENARS.

Most of the actors will be from countries such as Macedonia/Serbia and Montenegro, so they will talk with a slight foreighn/american accent. (I can add subtitles!)

That's it. If you have any questions, then feel free. I will read all the entries and decide.

Thankyou,

Curse!

Aren't you a horror writer? Why can't you write your own?

I'm just wondering as it seems odd that you don't write it yourself since you have all this free time.

Well, I would right my own, but I'd much prefer directing something someone else has made, instead of directing my own. I can do that anytime. And also, other people have intresting ideas, and I think those ideas should be exposed instead of my own.

And no, I'm not a horror writer.

Hey, Curse.  I seem to recall you liked "Trappings" quite a bit, and I would let you help yourself to that one if you want.  It's got some adults, though, in addition to the kids.  Maybe some teachers or parents could help out?

Whatever.  Just let me know if you want it.  Good luck with whatever you pick.

CoWell i've got a script that's about a page and a bit long.,  and it''s basic location is on a sidewalk. It might be a bit hard to create, but I'm sure you can do it.  its in the "Short" Section, and called "Untitled", byt Ben Padgett.

If you don't like that script, i've got another script not on the boards.

This the closest that i'v eever been to get a film created. (insert evil laugh, HERE)

I've chosen.

I will be the DIRECTOR of TRAPPINGS By Bert (Short). Filming will take place between February and June.  I'm planning, and will choose some of the best young actors in my class, as well as some of the teachers/parents.

I'll post updates here, (if that's okay with the moderator),

Curse!

Curse,
That's really good news.  ;D I'm glad you've chosen to produce one of Bert's screenplays.
A good pick.
