Horror Screenplay Contest

After the Indians TERRIBLE loss, I started thinking about a project I've been working on. There's a "Horror Movie Screenplay Contest" that runs twice a year and myself and a friend have been working on a screenplay. I can't really give away details of the script and story, but we're both psyched on the idea and compared to winners of previous contests, we're confident that a superior writing job could definitely get us recognized as one of the top three scripts. If you win a spot you get a cash prize and your script gets sent to movie studios that specialize in horror movie making. I just started sketching out our main character and I'm impressed with what we came up with. It's got a classic "slasher" feel, but isn't simply a run and kill movie. The story and little twists within our idea create something elevated past a simple horror movie. There will be blood. There will be anxiousness. There will be loving characters and hating characters. The tough part is finishing out the next few weeks of school and having the whole scene summary, character analysis, and 100 page script typed and revised by July 30th. There is time, but script writing is tedious and the "correct" way of writing a script has a lot of rules. Spacing, line breaks, tabs, etc. It's tough. Luckily I have taken a script writing class and have already written one script. It's nice to have something you're excited about and want to finish and the fact that my friend is a horror movie maniac and has scene probably 90% of horror movies ever made really helps with developing ideas and deciding if we're going to add in something that's over done. It's 2011 pretty much everything has been attempted, but we do have a fresh idea and are just hoping to have a solid project. well written script. and sell the idea to whoever is judging ours. We'll find out in a few months.
