Hey everyone, I uploaded my script THE GIFT in Amazon Studios sci-fi competition. I would love to get some feedback on it. If anyone is interested in reading it. You can download it at... http://studios.amazon.com/scripts/8106 The Premise: A commune of gifted orphaned children have the power to alter human behavior and stop crime in large populations. But when the children's proctor misuses the orphan's power for personal greed and corruption one scientist must risk her life to save the children. If you do download, be sure to download the PDF version as that is the latest. Thanks Guys!
I just started to take a peek at it, and noticed a puncuation mistake in the very beginning. "Is the camera on Benjamin?" should be "Is the camera on, Benjamin?".
I will check it out. The movie that immediately came to mind based on your description was Minority Report . . . [thought they are not exact correlations] [selected group of kids with abilities being used by THE SYSTEM] Rocket River
Thanks CCR. I'm sure I have a lot of them. I just barely made the deadline. They dead say they are looking for good story and not as concerned for typos and format as long as it is readable. So hopefully I won't get too penalized.
Thanks RR... yeah it does kind of have that feel but as you read it I think you will see it is quite different. Thanks again!
Movie Magic... I have final draft but I'm so use to MM that I couldn't make the switch. Amazon requires that you submit your script in RTF which messes with the formatting. SO I have to use a straight line version and can't use Dual columns are anything like that. They do allow you to upload a pdf version. which is a little better than rtf. So RR what are you writing? I 'd be happy to read it sometime if you want.
It is slow coming. Thanks. once I am completed I will reach out to you Right now. . . I think it need major retooling. Rocket River man, Houston has a wealth of untapped talent. Heck . . I think Clutchfans does! [not including myself ]
