SimplyScripts Screenwriting Discussion Board  /  July 2018 One Week Challenge  /  July OWC
Posted by: Grandma Bear, July 20th, 2018, 6:24am
Only one week left to the traditional July OWC!

I hope those of you who are not on vacation and such will take part. You will need to bring your A-game though. Over the years, the OWC scripts have really increased in quality and many have been re-written into features that have sold and kicked ass in some of the biggest competitions. Dena and Khamanna to name a few.

I'm going to leave one hint...

;)

In the theme of Wicked (relating to Oz, I believe) do we have to write our own musical??? If so I'll call first on Scooby Do the Musical...a tale of addiction, hallucination and rehab post 60s.

That or Jeff Goes to Vegas and the Search for the Treskilling Yellow. There's a musical number there about why the Penny Black is overrated

I’m with Cam on musical, cold in Oz could be a reference to Frozen and The Wizard of Oz. The other clue I have no idea how they fit in, but maybe Shh is reference to a Quiet Place, so we have to do a musical...with no actual singing....interpretative dance musical! Genius!

I'm hoping this OWC steers clear of all this. I hope the Oz hint has nothing to do the Wizard of Oz. Give us something straightforward we can be serious about. To me, it's very tiresome to read scripts by people trying to be more clever than the next guy.

Oz could be The Wizard of Oz, Australia, Ozzy Osbourne, Ozzie and Harriet, or HBO's 90s prison drama, Oz.

Cold could be literally cold or it could be cruel or heartless... which could be a reference to the Tin Man, who wants a heart.

Shh... makes me think of A Quiet Place.

I've got it! The theme is Ozzy loses his voice and needs to tell Sharon to turn on the furnace. :D

Boy, you’ve all had some good guesses at this.

If I recall, no one has ever got close to getting this right ... so my prediction is that ... you will be miles off :-)

I haven’t been around much in recent times, and haven’t written in a long while, but if the parameters are not way too narrow etc it may be time to dust down that key board. Hopefully my software works and I can remember the protocols - they get picked up in a OWC!

Actually narrow is not always that bad,  an example being it had to be set in an elevator proved to be creative, as did the character in a wheelchair, just don’t go too off the wall. Something that can allow different characters, different voices, places etc

One final thing, since I last wrote anything my daughter has started to be interested in writing - it would be a curious thing for me to introduce her to this world.

All the best, and glad to see SS is going well.

Regards

Bill

Yes, it’s interesting introducing my child to all this. I feel she will be a much better writer than me, but I can still guide her. That’s probably the best I can do.

Yes, Aborigines in Australia wouldn’t be called Aboriginal-Australian. An Inuk-Australian would be an immigrant or child of immigrants, speak with a bit of a funny accent, and probably carry a larger knife than otherwise expected.

I know people are off on vacation and such, but I hope the turnout will be decent. It's the last OWC until October.   :o


I hope so too. You have helped out this site so much over the years it deserves to be be rewarded. I haven’t been around much, and my heart is elsewhere re writing, but I like to pop back every now and them

However, re topic etc,  as I now consider myself to be  a non writer I hope that the criteria are accessible.

I also have this wish, not shared by others I accept, that we would have the chance of writing an affordable to film script so that this May interest film makers etc That’s an exciting part of this stuff..

Ok, I wil wake up, read and see

I may not have writen for a long time , but I hope it is fired up again

But, whatever, thanks Don, Pia, I do appreciate the chance.

Quoted from FrankM
But "rho is an element of Z" is math-pig-latin for "rho is a whole number."
Guess we'll see tonight (at least "tonight" in my time zone).

Bummer, you discovered I'm not a Maths genius after all.
So, what'd you come up with, smarty-pants?
And no, we'll see today, around midday.  :P

P.S. I've never known a turnout for an OWC not to be good. I always pray that there won't be an excessive tally.

Short arses...
No disrespect meant. Okay, vertically challenged. But, big personalities.



Well, there's a bomb.

Fat Man (Devito) and Little Boy (Fox) - maybe the bomb is atomic
