There are going to be two judges for each competition. Each competition will be two weeks long. And the winner will receive a merit by Carlie. You cannot win twice.

This was made and it did a good job. I am bringing it back. Please dont lock it. I will be the judge for the first competition. Who wants to be the other?

I'm sorry if i do it in a different order, but this way it's more clear to everyone. Is it also possible to put in some directions as what to do with the camera and stuff? well i'll do it afterwards, as it makes it more clear, if that's oke?:P and sorry for the long story:P

Title:
Movie night

Characters
3 girls, called Claudia, Donna and Louise (around the age of 16)
a friend named Tobias
a killer :O
3 other girls (also around the age of 16)

Plot:
3 girls are having a movienight, they watch a scary movie and are laughing and screaming when suddenly the phone is ringing. Donna picks it up and they only hear someone who's gasping. Then Donna suddenly says "Hey tobias, what are you doing?" "...." "Duh, i can see that you're calling me and stop making fun of us!" She looks at her friends and says "It was Tobias.. He was gasping, trying to be scary" and they start laughing. Finally claudia asks if they can further watch the movie but when she wants to push the play button the phone again is ringing, but now it's claudia's cellphone.. On the display she sees Donna her name and she looks at her with confuse in her eyes "Donna, you're calling me?" "That's not possible, my cellphone is over there... Huh where is it, it was there a couple of minutes ago!" Claudia picks up the phone and again someone is gasping. "Tobias if its you again, then... And what are you doing with Donna's.." But before she can finish her sentence the caller already hung up. Scared as they are they don't want to see the movie any further and they decided to go to brush their teeth and go to bed.

In the hallway they hear something and they say "what was that?" "it sounded like someone dropped something". They put the light on and see the cat from Claudia, Silver walking in the hallway towards them. "Oww, it's just the cat, nothing more, let's go upstairs" Claudia huggs Silver and they go upstairs.

A little while later when they're brushing their teeth the light flickers on and off. "What is this?!!", Louise screams and they run to claudia her bedroom. They climb on her bed but forgot to put on the light. "There's someone in here!" "What do we have to do?" "Why is this happening?" they're all screaming when the light goes on and they see a man with a knife turning towards them.....

The end

and that's when you see that 3 girls were watching a movie, where all this happened and 1 of them says "Pfoo, that was one scary movie.. I would be scared to death if the phone is ringing right now" "Yea me too" an other one replies. That's when the phone starts ringing.. The girls are screaming and they throw the phone to each other saying "you pick it up" "no you do it!" finally one picks it up and says "Hello?" and again, there's gasping...

THE END

It would be nice if in the beginning you zoom in on a horrorscene of a movie and you hear screaming from the girls, that's when you zoom out and point the camera towards the girls, so that you see they're having a movienight.. also it's nice to zoom in on the display where you see Donna is calling and you have to have 2 shots, one where you see the girls watching a movie and the phone laying obviously on a desk and 1 where it's gone (when donna says, huh where is it?). And then the last thing, at the end you see THE END and that's when you have to zoom out slowly from the television and point the camera towards the three girls sitting there..

I think it would be a surprising movie

Setting:
Someone's house and a second livingroom (that's where you see the other 3 girls).

Cover:
You can make an image of 3 girls watching a scary movie, with a dark shadow behind them with a knife. Not a real person, but just a shadow that's standing behind them.

I hope you think it' good ^^

No, as you can see in the quote below, the first week you can wright whatever you like

I forgot to tell you that every two weeks there will be different genres. the first week is whatever you like. the deadline is two weeks from now on the 8th of August.

This idea came from my story i created and posted (hopefully viewable) on my thread "My Work" in the arts forum.. the story i created doesn't have the right balance to be converted to a movie so i changed most of it but still basing on the small story.. anyways

Title: Turmoil

Setting
In a Dystopian world where a powerful nation has invaded a smaller yet strong willed nation. the conflict has gone on for only a year and a half. the story begins with our main character trying to save a 14 year old girl from a small group of enemy soldiers

Characters
-(nick/code name)- /age/
Casper-Ghost- /17/ M
Apple-Goldie- /17/ F
Jack-Gecko- /19/ M
Jason-Bourne- /16/ M
Keegan-Wheels-/22/ M
Lara-Queen- /25/ F
Natalie-Eagle-/13/ F
there is no main character for the movie shows everyone's story but if it had to be someone it would be Natalie

Plot
The movie starts out with Casper saving Natalie from a patrol of 5 men. the movie continues on to show the life of Casper and his fellow gang of rebels. its starts showing how they live one day.
the first day after the rescue Natalie is introduced to everyone and is explained that everyone gains a nickname.
Casper earned his name by being able to sneak up on soldiers without them seeing him or hearing him
Apple because of her blonde hair in reference to goldie locks.
Jack earned the name gecko because he created a device enabling someone to crawl up walls..
Jason didn't really earn his but was more given to him in reference to the Jason Bourne movies
Keegan is able to drive anything with a pair of wheels.
Lara when she went berserk in a fight sustaining multiple injuries gaining Queen Bit*h.

Natalie then continues to toured around the complex under the guidance of Lara and Jason.. The compound in which this group call home is a school containing a library which is armoured with scrap metal and tank armour so it is referred as the fortress, a large gym which now stores a battle scarred M1 Abrams tank and a armoured APC. an E shaped building contains the living quarters as well as some defenses and an oval which has been heavily mined.. everything is scarred in some way.
Natalie starts to learn about the people that live here... How Casper was the first to arrive at this school.. he had been a student and flocked here as it was familiar when he was in a primitive state of mind. whereas Lara, Jason, Keegan and Jack came from the city. they had found Casper here in a primitive rage that had almost killed all four.. only for him to snap out of it and forgetting everything of his life before the war.. Casper is only the name that he gave himself as it held some connection between him now and his past personality. Apple is a similar story but she was found by Casper after she had regained her rational thought. her name was reflection to what she saw first when she was released from her primitive state.
The day continues on. the tour ending everyone prepares for a scavenge of near by housing. Natalie being smaller was able to gain things that the others were unable to. as the day wanes everyone prepares for bed after eating dinner which was canned food.
the movie shifts to Casper and it continues on into explaining the hardship he has felt during the months trying to identify who he is. this explains what apple is also feeling. this sequence ending the movie fades out into the next day.

now that was just the beginning half hour. i felt that this movie is so complicated that it needed more than a brief plot. so i will continue this but for now it is time for me to go to bed

i will also add that it gets easier to understand from now on and there isn't as much in the movie for me to go into detail about

Okay. So.
The cover is the front picture of the movie? Like a DVD or poster?
