Short script with no dialogue

I am currently writing a 3-4 minute script. The film has no dialogue so the script does look a bit odd and the fact that it's all based in one location makes it look like an essay almost with the scene headings.

I have searched for examples of these types of scripts, but haven't found anything!

Any help?
 
I would suggest looking at some visual patch of a feature screenplay.

Long ago I wrote (and made) a bunch of purely visual shorts, no copies of those scripts exist in the electronic world.

I broke things up into "paragraphs" - about 3-4 lines - that were a piece of action . Made it easier to shoot that way. I do that now with feature scripts.

Ditto. I've signed up to the website as well, but still no access to these scripts.

Chris, where are the scripts located?... all I see is titles, authors, etc.

First, you have to register on the site to be able to read the scripts (it's free and it takes about 2 minutes).

Then, on the the page I linked to, click on any title, that will bring you to the script page, where you can see all of the reviews it has received. Click on the title on that page and the script will open as a PDF.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
 
I wrote a no-dialogue short, and made it look "normal" by breaking the paragraphs into single units of discrete action.
 
I must be retarded because when I click on the title in the upper left hand of the page it gives me a blank page and below at the bottom left it says "done." When I try right click and try to "save as" I just get a HTML page saved to my desk top. Any help for a cyber-wimp?
 
10s, I would suggest you make sure your browser and adobe reader are up to date.

Robbie, My bad. It turns out the writer has listed that script as unavailable. I think that script has gone into production (it was awesome) and the filmmaker wants to keep it under wraps. You could try emailing or pm'ing Matias Caruso to read a copy (he is a member here as well as MoviePoet).
 
I think they're all unavailable actually. Thanks for the examples on your website though!
