Just wondering if there are any screenwriters here? I'm dabbling in it myself and have come across some resources, just want to find out if anyone here has written one.

Hey there! You posted this in a bit the wrong section. Only scripts and plays go in the script section. Conversation can go here or in the lounge. :)


I've written a few plays myself, and I even had (a short) one produced by my high school theater troupe. Pretty nifty, huh? So if you want to talk about plays, go for it!

Hi!

I took part in the April Script Frenzy (http://scriptfrenzy.org) where you have to write 100 pages in 30 days, some good fun! Unfortunately, I couldn't finish mine for other reasons but you may find it really helpful if you want to be a screen writer. If you check out the website you'll find some great screen writing software and tips :)

You like screenwriting? What kind?
I do some. Screen and Stage. It's all fun. What made you interested in it?

I just enjoy movies and writing.

Have you completed many screenplays? I'm working on a couple right now.

Also trying to figure out how to get them out there once I do. I've come across a couple of sites that you can use. One is Inktip.com where you just put your logline and synopsis, etc. I also saw another called myvisualpitch.com where you actually create like a trailer for your project. Looks pretty cool. Have you tried anything like that?
