Film Script/Geva 10-Minute Play Contest

Geva 10-minute play contest scripts are due today. Please print out your 2nd draft of your 10-minute play script (even if you hate it or think it sucks, you may win...sometimes we are not the best judge of our abilities and talents.) Think positively. You cannot win contests if you do not enter.

Please add a title sheet to your play script including name, full address (with zip code), phone #, and email (if possible). Remove my name and the heading. Geva doesn't care that you did the assignment for a class project and they don't need to know my name.

You may submit up to 3 scripts, so go for it!

Please continue to work on your Film Scripts. The push to finish today will allow you to do little homework over break (see below). However, if you waste your time or do not complete your work today in the lab (even if you are working hard), please finish writing your film script draft and turn in by Tuesday, March 1 (our next class).

The Academy Awards are screening Feb. 27. For extra credit, please watch and respond to the event. What did you notice? What do you think about the films selected? How has the event changed over the years? Etc.

HOMEWORK: Academy Awards handout & extra credit response. Incomplete film script drafts should be completed. Please finish reading Annie Hall (see post below).
