Scriptfest III

[John LaBonney]

Thanks again to dvxuser for the ScriptFests!

When's the next one? Can't wait!

[ConspiracyPenguin]

I move to second the above stated motion and proceed swiftly to Article C, Section XIV of the DVXuser Codebook which states, in excerpt:

...whereas in the event that a third (3rd) ScriptFest is held and sponsored by DVXuser ("THE WEBSITE") it is to be stated upon closure of the voting period that the winner for first place is, undeniably, Nick Lane (also known as ConspiracyPenguin)...any objection to or caused by the above stated, predetermined result is to be oppressed immediately and the poster of said blasphemous comments is to be punished severely in a matter to be determined by a joint team of Jason Ramsey, Isaac Broody and Nick Lane...Further, it is should be known by all parties that any results procured by a voting process of any variety are null and void due to the fact that a voting process such as the one mentioned above and detailed in Article A, Section VII is held only for show and is, by predetermination, a sham and/or hoax...

It goes on, but I think you get the gist. Point is, bring on the next fest!

Will happen, but I need some feedback on what you guys are interested in as far as genre. Any thoughts?

[ConspiracyPenguin]

Compassion

Fear

Hate

Hope

Irony

I'm open to anything and I really enjoy the exercise of writing for the fests. Feedback is A+ 100% cool, even if it is to bash me over the head with my own work.

I would personally like to write something next time that leaves the reader a little more uplifted. heh! I know this last one had the built in "mistake" and we had the choice of redemption or being undone as the consequence. I could have done with a little more redemption, even in my own story. haha!

The due date may be close to holidays or New Years, so maybe something appropriate for that time of year. New beginnings, celebrations, convergence of conflicted people.

I dunno. My ideas suck.

Just name it and I'll write it.

Comedy/something funny might be an interesting genre.

[John LaBonney]

I'd like to suggest that we have a theme, rather than a genre, kind of like the dvxuser film fests. That way, we could write any kind of film, whether it be drama, comedy, action, or what have you. The film fests have been great in allowing creativity in this way.

pretty much word-for-word what i was thinking...

Sounds good, throw me some themes.

Found a movie theme index at this site

http://www.textweek.com/movies/themeindex.htm

Just thought it might help

Edit: Only after I posted the link did I realize the site is religious in nature, still has some good themes though.
