Script Revolution and Shootin’ the Shorts – Ready, Aim… FIRE!!!

To all STS fans, post-Halloween fiends and peeps – now is the time for all good writers to come to the aid of their craft. (Anyone who doesn’t get that historical reference: for shame!)

That is, TODAY is the day that Script Revolution (www.scriptrevolution.com) officially partners with Shootin’ the Shorts. Our STS Blog will continue to exist and thrive – but now with a spectacular and growing site at its side.

Officially, all shorts uploaded on Script Revolution will have access to submitting to STS as well. You can *still* submit to us directly, of course… but why wouldn’t you go the Script Revolution route? That’s two writing platforms for the (free) price of one!

Following is a snippet of what the also-spectacular founder of Script Revolution – CJ Walley – had to say in yesterday’s SR Newsletter (which, when you’re a member, you’ll get as well.)

So – read up… and check ’em out. And we swear, we didn’t influence CJ’s words at all…!

Then check us out tomorrow for a brand new showcase, of course!

Shootin’ The Shorts Is Coming To Script Revolution

I’m absolutely psyched to announce this. Shootin’ The Shorts is an amazing blog that’s been showcasing short scripts for a few years now, and has built up such a strong reputation it helps get at least one script optioned a month. As someone who’s optioned short scripts in the past via this blog, I can certainly vouch for its effectiveness. It’s run by J.E Clarke, and when she approached me about a possible integration with Script Revolution, I jumped at the chance.

Now first things first. Shootin’ The Shorts will in no way affect how scripts are listed. Nor will it be claiming to feature the best scripts on Script Revolution. It’s an independent section which pulls material from the database and links back to script detail pages and writer bios. This isn’t reviewing either, it’s showcasing. Scripts that align with the readers are showcased in an entirely positive light and it’s up to filmmakers to decide if there are any changes needed.

The Shootin’ The Shorts page will be activated tomorrow and will contain many of their past reviews from the previous year. Users will also easily be able to submit their material by simply going to their short script pages, clicking on edit, scrolling down, and checking the “Submit to Shootin’ The Shorts” checkbox.
