Dave and Paul, how's it going?
|
Thanks for asking. Paul's "interesting" and "challenging" are kind terms . I just submitted mine. I am crammed tomorrow so really out of time. It's now or never (Elvis). |

This week's challenge definitely simulates coming into an existing project. That's the mindset I've tried to take through the week.
I haven't had any time to work on the script in the last few days, so it'll come down to whether I can get a good enough polish on it tomorrow.
We'll see.
I'll probably submit early evening tomorrow. |

11 hours to go and I'm way too curious to see what Sean's 5 W's are. A possible scenario, taken from an actual movie called Knocking on Heaven's Door (Germany)
Who - Two guys What - make a pact to go someplace fun When - before they die Why - because they are dying Where - don't know what this means. they make a pact in a hospital, but the movie is a road trip. And they go to a seaside. So "where" could be each of the three.
I guess "where" should be in a car as there's how. How did they break from the hospital to get where they are going? That's what the two finalists might be writing about. |

Posted early. Thanks Don! I've read both entries. Good work, you two. Comments will follow after I've done groceries. Hungry husband. Typical. Just wanted to acknowledge the work, given there's not much action on the boards at the mo'. P.S. The what's and whys and whozits etcetera are pretty obvious. |

Well done guys, I've read both scripts and they are both great pieces in their own right.
The similarities, which clearly make up the criteria, are obvious enough. If anyone 'broke' the rules it would be hard to say.
I do have a favourite, but that's not saying the person who is second in my books has done a bad job in any way.
Congrats to you both. You should both be very proud of what you've achieved. |
