Kirikou and the Sorceress


ShareIn a little village somewhere in Africa, a boy named Kirikou is born. But he's not a normal boy, because he knows what he wants very well. Also he already can speak and walk. His mother tells him how an evil sorceress has dried up their spring and devoured all males of the village except of one. Hence little Kirikou decides, he will accompany the last warrior to the sorceress. Due to his intrepidity he may be the last hope of the village. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0181627/

Can you turn this logline from producer Edward Saxton into a 15 page winning script?

Break out your scriptwriting software and get to work, because the 7th Industry Insider Screenwriting Contest gives you the unique opportunity to turn this idea into a solid spec screenplay that could be your ticket to Hollywood success, just like past winner, Tyler Marceca with The Disciple Program.
The Industry Insider Screenwriting Contest is an international competition that facilitates relationships between new writers and Industry leaders looking to help aspirants embark on writing careers, and Tyler's winning script sold to Universal Studios with Mark Wahlberg attached to star and produce.
Tyler has been enjoying the spotlight, but took a moment to talk to us about his experience with the contest:
"No other contest offers what the Industry Insider Contest does -- a chance to develop your script alongside an industry professional. Some contests are about cash and prizes. The Industry Insider Contest is about advancing your career and developing material that can be successful in the marketplace. It's about opening up doors. Not only was my Story Specialist, Mario a consummate professional but an invaluable source of critical feedback. He brought tremendous energy and insight to each of our weekly sessions. You would think he was earning a ten-percent manager's cut. Mario (expletive) rocks."

Do you have what it takes to be the next success story?

Working from this A-list logline from Edward Saxon, Academy Award-winning® Producer of Silence of the Lambs, and Academy Award- winning® film Philadelphia, you're challenged to create up to the first 15 pages of an original script based on the given concept. Make it your own - drama, action, dark comedy... anywhere your imagination takes you!

"After a storm destroys her small farm, killing her mother and father, an adolescent girl is sent off on a journey of survival."

But it doesn’t stop there. The Industry Insider Screenwriting Contest goes much further than your average competition, by providing the top 10 finalists with mentors to guide them through the entire script creation process, with the goal of completing a spec screenplay to be judged by a panel of Hollywood power players.

Heres how it works:

  • Entrants write up to the first 15 pages of a script based on the logline above, provided by Edward Saxon
  • The top 10 finalists are chosen from the submissions, and receive a personalized letter of congratulations from Edward Saxon
  • Each of the 10 finalists receives a copy of Movie Magic Screenwriter to professionally format their work as they enter into a 12-week Story Specialists mentoring program, consisting of feedback for every 10 pages submitted, with the goal of completing a spec screenplay based on the given logline
  • After 10 weeks of mentoring, the finalists submit their rough drafts to our professional script readers for comprehensive Development Notes, and then have two weeks to work with their mentor and notes to complete the final draft of their screenplay for judging.
  • Edward Saxon and production company Benderspink judge the completed screenplays and choose a winner
The lucky winner receives transportation and lush accommodations at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood, a classic Industry lunch with Edward Saxon at The Ivy, a meeting with Benderspink, and more.

Friday giveaway: Two Harry Potter first editions

Friday giveaway: Two Harry Potter first editions:

Special giveaway today, two first edition, first printings: "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix."

Enter here on the site by leaving a comment, or you can enter on Facebook or twitter.

I'll pick a winner from the three sites at random tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM EST.

On a more serious note, I'm sure many of you have heard about the record flooding in central and southern New York as well as Pennsylvania. The bookstore made it through the rain without any problems, but our family's other shop - a used furniture and antique store - did get quite a bit of water. In fact, we have been unable to get to the shop since Wednesday, as many roads in the area are either closed or washed out. We went through the same thing in 2006, and we'll be fine.

Other communities in the area may not be. Just to the west of us, Sidney, NY is experiencing "catastrophic flooding." It will be a long time before the people and businesses there will return to life as normal. Sidney is also home to the Delaware Valley Humane Society, a friendly little animal shelter where I was lucky enough to meet and adopt my two dogs. Even after adopting my second dog, I make a trip down there every other weekend or so to meet the new arrivals and to give them the proceeds of my clearance sales from the store. They are good people and take good care of animals in need.

I'm not sure how they are faring during this crisis, but I know that they got hit pretty hard in 2006. If you love animals and enjoy the giveaways here at Forgotten Bookmarks, think about donating a dollar or two - I'll post a PayPal donate button below. 100% of the proceeds (and proceeds from bookperdiem.com) will go to the shelter. I'll take whatever is in the account to them as soon as the roads are passable. If you don't donate here, think about donating to Southern Tier chapter of the Red Cross.

Donations are ABSOLUTELY not required to enter.

Thanks for reading this, and good luck on the giveaway!


Proceeds go to Delaware
