Submit your best 10-12-minute short film screenplay, genre & topic of your choosing,
and show us why you belong in our lab. While this is an opportunity for Women of Color, the scripts should not be, necessarily, about Women of Color. This is a blank canvas for you to showcase your creativity and unique voice. So we encourage you to explore freely, and not be
hindered by any sense of expectation. Six (6) talented women of color will be selected to participate in the week-long lab, and one winner will be selected to have her short film produced.

M Film Lab Spring 2024 Program

Whether in the theater or streamed at home, horror continues to be one of the most popular film genres. They routinely top the box office and many of their characters have become part of the cultural zeitgeist, from Norman Bates in Psycho to Freddy Krueger in A Nightmare on Elm Street to Hannibal Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs. We invite you to dip your pen into this classic and enduringly favored genre for our Horror Short film Contest. Give us your most twisted, demonic, frightfest for a chance to win cash prizes and have your screenplay produced. Just be sure to adhere to the contest guidelines. Happy writing!

Horror Short

We invite you to help us tell more stories that put the spotlight on authentic Indigenous characters, that speak of their complexity and humanity, their challenges and triumphs, their joys and sorrows. We want you to write an original 15-minute short film screenplay, in any genre of your choosing.

16 Screenwriting “Red Flags” and How To Avoid Them

Bill (William Garrett) Clark

I am of the opinion my screenplay,"Rosewood The Early Years" could challenge "Gone With The Wind" for more than ten Academy Awards. I specifically joined Open Screenplay to get some pointers on writing a screenplay not slog through a dozen sections of information. My screenplay does not fall within the normal parameters of a regulation screenplay, yet it has all the elements described in Mr. Wolk's Webinar last Sunday. I learn quick but I also have very little patience with people who continue to think inside the box. My screenplay is different in that it has No nudity, No sex, No vampirism, No guts and gore. Can any other movie today match that claim? I have a little patience but dealing with people who think inside a box drains it quick. At that point, I move on to greener pastures.

Hi Bill, thanks for your comment. That’s great to hear you’re excited about your screenplay. I hope the platform and this blog post have been helpful to you so far.

Mr. Bash, this being my first rodeo, ( screenplay), I should be entitled to a few mistakes in the learning process. I read the "Red Flag" post and yes, my screenplay does have a few. I am a retired aerospace engineer and have a few books, novels, novellas and poetry anthologies in my portfolio. In my screenplay, I do tend to add lengthy descriptions along with good dialogue. Reason being, I do not want any mistake made or assumed in the moment of the mood. True, the director is in charge but I am like a damn good number two guy. As I mentioned earlier, my screenplay has no nudity, no sex, no guts and gone or vampirism. What it does have however, is a chance for the actors to act, using my screenplay they will definitely earn their pay. There is no real acting involved in jumping into bed every five minutes, chopping off heads every second and being reborn every century or so until someone sticks a wooden peg into your heart. Working for Honeywell for all those years, I learned to have a healthy disrespect for people who can't think outside the box. Same principle involved here. I love movies and I'll wager, after watching the first five or ten minutes of virtually any movie, I can tell you how it is going to end. That is how "programmed" today's movies are .If you can guess the ending, what fun is there to continue to watch? So how do we get past this one hurdle? The ball is in your court.

Hi, thanks for your comment.  Yes, you can find more of my posts here on the blog site.

Arrogance is unattractive under any circumstance but in a screenwriter, it almost always results in a shelved product. Yeah, and I worked in the space industry, too. It didn't make me a jackass.

 <p><strong>1. Why did you decide to run a screenwriting contest for Layla?</strong></p>
 <p>Our mission at Layla is to empower people to take control of their mental health. As part of that, we acknowledge that stigma around mental health continues to be present and negatively impacts individuals and communities. Through our collaboration with Open Screenplay, we wanted to promote more open dialogue around mental health. We wanted to hear and elevate powerful stories from a diverse range of writers.</p>
 <p><strong>2. What would you like to convey to writers that are participating in Layla&rsquo;s Mental Health screenwriting contest?</strong></p>
 <p>Thank you! Thank you for channeling your creativity and skills towards this important topic. In reading some of the moving stories you&rsquo;ve written so far, the care and passion is coming through in spades. You&rsquo;re taking leadership and doing your part with the mental health conversation in your own unique ways.</p>
 <p><strong>3. Why did you start Layla?</strong></p>
 <p>It&rsquo;s too hard to find the right therapist because the system is not designed around the needs of the individual seeking support. There&rsquo;s a current gap between wanting to get mental health support, and finding the provider that is right for you. We wanted to bridge that gap through a personalized, warm and reliable service that engages people and empowers them to start their healing and growth journey.</p>
 <p><strong>4. What is your favorite movie?</strong></p>
 <p>Money Heist, if it were a movie <img class="emoji" style="width: 24px;" draggable="false" src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.1/svg/1f642.svg" alt="?" /></p>

Writing was a hobby for me but now I see it as a craft. I used to criticize movies all the time, then I decided to make my own and my journey started.

الكتابة كانت هواية بالنسبة لي، لكنني الآن أراها كحرفة. كنت أنتقد الأفلام طوال الوقت، ثم قررت أن أصنع أفلامي الخاصة ومن هنا بدأت رحلتي.
