The primary purpose of the SimplyScripts Discussion Board is the discussion of unproduced screenplays. If you are a producer or director lookng for your next project, the works here are available for option, purchase or production only if you receive permission from the author.
NOTE: these screenplays are NOT in the public domain and MAY NOT be used or reproduced for any purpose (including eductional purposes) without the expressedwrittenpermission of the author.
For the sixteen of you who moved on to round 2, congratulations. This is truly a time for celebration. What better way is there to celebrate than to have an event. Now, for your eight matchups, you will be tasked with a specific, randomly-selected event. There will be no rules on genre and the script length will max out at 8 pages. In addition, you will also be given the number one through four. This will be explained to you in your messages.
To avoid... issues like we had in the last round, you don't have to be perfect on the page length. If you go a few lines onto page 9, nobody's going to cut something off of you that you'll desperately miss. But, seriously, if you turn in a 15 page script, people are going to hate you and understandably so, so try and keep it as close to eight as possible.
I wish you all the best of luck and I will see you in round 3.
UPDATE: After having a few of the same questions about two specific aspects of the script, I'm going to be clear about them here.
1. The vast majority, if not all, of your script should take place during and at the ceremony you were given.
2. The people who die in your script have to die during the course of the script. They can't be dead before the script starts and they can't be dying as the script ends. They die, at some point, during your script.
