I'll go along with Fred. Here's one you might know: A huge tricycle comes to a stop in front of them. It is made entirely from stone, as is the giant riding it. The Rockbiter speaks to them in a deep, friendly voice. Two trolls, BERT and TOM sit around a fire. Bert STIRS the
contents of a CAULDRON dangling above the flames. Tom
watches him with a hungry stare.
William enters the lair. He carries the two ponies into a
makeshift pen, locking them inside. Olaf lights up and chases the rocks, who surround Kristoff and unfold as trolls. Not really a lot of description |

Gr. 62 RomanceAviation A Midwife This is my first time in this competition. I'm also a screenplay rookie, but I'm completely obsessed! I've only written two feature screenplays so far, and no one has read them, so I'm very excited for the opportunity to put my work out there. Both of those scripts are incredibly non-romantic, so, needless to say I let out a groan last night when I saw my assigned genre. It's definitely out of my element, but that's what I'm here for. Since the initial groaning, I have outlined the whole story and I will dig into the writing tonight. Can't wait to write my first romantic story (before last night, I would have never expected to type those words, let me tell ya!)

Group 6 Romance/A Pit Stop/ A Specialist Outside of competition my go to is drama, sometimes with a hint of romance, so I'm excited to lean fully into romance this time. And I'm very into the idea I started dreaming up last night - but is the first idea ever the best one?? Is it a bad sign that the only things I've Googled so far are "fast acting deadly incurable diseases," "Alzheimer's disease," and "stages of pancreatic cancer"?? Guess we'll see. Happy researching/planning/writing/stressing/procrastinating/dreaming/self-doubting/obsessing/falling-in-love-with-the-characters-you-made-up-in-your-head everyone!

Surely you'd be able to make this one historical if you wanted, dramas can be historical. That's 100% what I would have done with it.

Thats what I got, this is my first go around in the comp and my first screenplay as it is. So I'm not under any impression that I'll go very far. However, something as trite as a burned out merc tale isn't exactly inspiring. But I guess that should be ever more inspiration to try and subvert the trope or whatever. |

Am amused that for short story I wrote about a will (that wasn't part of the prompt) and what did I get assigned for screenplay? SUBJECT: A last will and testament.

I'm the same - first competition and first screenplay. Plus I can count on precisely zero fingers the number of action/adventure films I've seen in the past few years so I have no idea what I'm going to do about the genre. I'll be happy just to get something submitted so that at least I can say I've written my first screenplay. I can only get better from here.
