THE DEADLINE
Your script must be turned in by July 31. Multiple entries, up to 3, are OK. It should follow this format (the text is used as an example):
C1: Tom and Bob drink a cool frosty.
W1: Gosh, Tom, this frosty is good
W2: Gosh, Bob, it is good. Pull my finger.
W1: Gosh, Tom, this frosty is good
W2: Gosh, Bob, it is good. Pull my finger.
And so on until complete. There are 10 word balloons and 9 captions. Captions C1 and C3 are filled in for you and are here:
C1: The United Defense of Planets headquarters, Baalor
C3: Meanwhile, on the mining planet Goa prime …
So, that leaves you with just 7 captions YOU need to fill.
You may PM me your script anytime between now and July 31. Myself and two other people will look at the scripts and make a judgment. We’re looking solely to see if the words fit the images. You may take any approach you like to this. However, dialogue, continuity and structure matter, and the words should fit the story.
Scripts will be judged Aug. 1-2. Winner to be announced Aug. 3.
