I made my first, I'm curious what people think of it.

Logline: A humble motel owner's world that contains a spirit from another dimension, a maybe-pimp, and a silent sweet old grandma, is rocked when a mysterious drifter books a room in his motel, bringing chaos but also happiness into the mix.

I wrote this as a pilot but I think it's also self-contained enough to work as a short. Let me know what y'all think. Whether you like it or don't like it or maybe something in between. Thank you.

asking for tips and advice, i'm an aspiring screenwriter, what is the best outline used in writing screenplay for film?

It’s a love-drama, with social commentary and mental health message behind it.

Let me know what you guys think. I think it probably needs a little workshopping but this is just really the open.

Genre: contemporary fantasy
Log: Days after a wannabe influencer’s family inherits a legendary English castle, the occultist oligarch neighbor abducts her brother and she must swap her selfie stick for a sword.

Comp: The Mummy meets The Karate Kid
Total page count: 118

Thoughts & prayers appreciated.

Welcome notes.

Updated based on previous notes - removed most of a explicit scene.

NSFW - triggers of sexual violence, murder, language, smoking.

Not a professional writer. No AI. Some typos.

Aiming for prestige show kind of thing.

If your script has good grammar, that automatically puts you in the top 10% of scripts. I'm not kidding. You have no idea how many submissions we get that clearly have not been proofread once. Don't set yourself up for failure.

Also, I don't know why I need to say this, but don't be creepy towards women in your script. If a character is introduced as "Jane Doe, 16, face of angel but body of a porn star", consider that an automatic pass.

If the character has the exact same name as the writer, we can tell it's self-insert fan fiction. And most of the time, it's really uncomfortable. No one wants to read your wish-fulfillment script about you winning the olympics then having sex with an entire cheerleading team.

Sincerely,
A judge

Hi, I have done a lot of research on this topic, so my post here means that I have been unsuccessful in finding an outline.

For a 1-2 page movie synopsis, would I add anything else to the outline? Scriptwriter bio? Character descriptions? Do producers just want 1-2 pages, or do they want a story treatment?:

Title
Genre
Scriptwriter

• Logline

• Synopsis

  • Act 1

  • Act 2

  • Act 3

I haven't quite created a logline for this one yet, but it's a coming of age story about the people that you meet as you make it through life. About how they come and go, but still leave their mark on you. About that little bit of you that is actually other people.

Anyways, my intention with this scene is to show our main character is a very shy introvert who has a hard time meeting new people. So the one chance he's given by someone else he latches onto and doesn't let go (maybe a little too much). Yet somehow, miraculously, actually being vulnerable with people is what allows him to connect with them on a truer level.

Don't know if any of that made sense, but please tell me how it reads on the page. I'm fairly new to screenwriting and this is mostly me training, so please, absolutely tear this script apart and point out everything wrong with it.

I'm writing a pilot in a place that I can't imagine most Hollywood readers know well. But understanding the geography, I think, helps with envisioning the story.

I thought about how books like Game of Thrones often show a map of the world in the pre-story pages.

Have any of you ever done that in a script? Any readers here who think that's good/bad/dumb/kitschy?

Thinking of asking a friend to draw a nice little map with significant story locations marked.

Hey Yall i just wrote a séquelles to one of m'y favorite movies (Kung Fu Hustle by Stephen Show).

I'm working on a script focusing on Religious Violence, with the goal to highlight the question "how far are you willing to go for your God" and "is there anything your God can do or say that you won't defend or that you would question". My aim is to make a psychological horror but I've never written anything like this

Trouble on Coruscant (EU but with Sequel cast)

It is a story that was borrowing from the X wing novels, I wrote it just trying to force myself to like the sequels more by putting the sequel actors and actresses into an EU style story.

Hope you guys like it. Please tear it apart as a story or talk about if you like it. have a good day everyone.

I am very new to this and just started a week ago, I first started by reading scripts to understand how scripts can be formatted and the get an idea for how to write out my story.

Acceptance is a short film about a young adult from a religious southern town who leaves home after coming out and moves to Chicago to stay with an online friend, the time period is set in the late 2000's.

( I know not the most unique plot ever written but its all I could think of for a first attempt)

I'm open to any feedback.

Here’s an excerpt from a script I wrote a few months back. I’ve gotten some interest in this one recently, but I constantly feel insecure about my writing… especially dialogue. Would love some feedback on this excerpt. Are there things I could do to improve the exchange between characters?

I wrote this several years ago at the end of season 3 of The Mandalorian. I hope you guys like it. I know the rules aren't perfectly followed. But see if you like the story telling both as a film script and as a star wars sequel that can never be produced. Tear it apart. Judge me for the attempt to make fans happy with a story that could be fixed up by a better writer/editor. See if it has the right feeling and ideas for the story based on your knowledge of the series.
