Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 2:06pm On Nov 29, 2006 |
Hello, Please contact me if you have a super story or script and would like it to be made into a movie. Send the following information to --: 1) Your name, address, and email address. 2) A complete summary of your story in English. 3) An e-copy of 1 to 3 sample pages of your script. 4) Number of words in your story and the format. If I'm interested in your story, I'll contact you by email. This is for a series of serious commercial projects. Even if I get 12 great scripts (or stories), I will gladly produce them all. Please note that: 1) I'd prefer stories that are: (1) Really engaging (2) 100% Nigerian (3) Not obscene (4) Broadly appealing. 2) Stories in local languages or Pidgin English will not be rejected if they are very good. 3) Everything is open to negotiation, but your income will depend on the success of the movie to be produced. 4) Your story must be complete, although if you merely have an idea we can still have a chat. Thanks, Seun Osewa. -- 1 Like |

Hello, Thanks for your response. I'm really looking forward to reading your story. Action and Romantic Comedy would be especially appreciated, though I'm not too picky. Seun. |

Ain't you a writer? I thought you had some stuff up in here. |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 8:39am On Dec 01, 2006 |
I never managed to complete a story. I don't have the patience of a dedicated writer. |

seun, I have a script ready for production. you can mail me through baryour2000@yahoo.com. Bayo |

@seun why not ask for something that excludes fetish? im pretty sure 99% of the scripts you'll receive will have some dodgy babalawo scenes. also, removing fetish stuff would at least cut out the need for some dodgy looking computer animations and effects. |

I think this is a great challenge and i am accepting it whole heartedly Got to get me some serious write- up me . |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 7:02am On Dec 02, 2006 |
If you have an idea for a story that you want to develop, please email me so we'll be able to make sure the idea is a marketable one. You don't want to spend several weeks writing a script only to be told that the premise is bad. |

Hi, i am a frelance writer and i have lots of stories in my head except that i do not have sufficient time to put them into writing. My stories are more like action and adventure stories. Well don't know if you'd like to produce movies in this category. Sani |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 6:13pm On Dec 02, 2006 |
Original action and adventure stories are very rare in Nollywood, and therefore precious. For that reason, I would like to encourage you to develop your ideas into a 60-140 minute script. I can help you develop your idea into a marketable form if you contact me before you start writing. It's not that easy to write a good movie script, however. You need to be really dedicated to writing! |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 11:26am On Dec 03, 2006 |
Guys, guys, I can come up with more interesting story ideas than what you've been sending me. What I can't do is turn a story idea into a complete script. Perhaps I should treat your submissions as writing samples and hire you to turn my ideas into scripts? |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by freddie1(m): 3:49pm On Dec 04, 2006 |
pls seun, check your mail and do get in touch, thanks. |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by sandoka(m): 6:46pm On Dec 04, 2006 |
It's an easy thing to conjure stories in the mind, the difficult thing to do is to turn the story into movie scripts. That's what i know how to do best. My problem is finding time to do this. The nature of my job doesn't give me much room to relax and write except for the few times when i am idle. If you have stories you can send them to me i will format it very well to industry standards for you and i bet you will like it. |

Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 3:12am On Dec 07, 2006 |
If the story was published in the newspapers, then you certainly do not own the story. You can't sell what you don't own. I can easily read the same newspapers, can't I? |

Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Raymand(m): 8:09am On Dec 08, 2006 |
@ Seun Just curious, how do you plan to lessen the effects of piracy on your film? |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by hipzy(m): 2:26pm On Dec 08, 2006 |
My brethren, don't be to inquisive and interogative |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 4:21pm On Dec 08, 2006 |
@Raymand: Trust me, piracy is the least of my problems. First, I have to create a movie that is worth pirating! |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Raymand(m): 8:09pm On Dec 08, 2006 |
true. . .true. . . |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by rayz101(m): 1:48pm On Dec 09, 2006 |
hi seun, so is ur sugestino about this piracy problem? |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 9:46pm On Dec 09, 2006 |
Solution to the piracy problem: get corporate sponsors to cover the cost of development so that consumers will only need to pay for the cost of duplication. That way, your movies might even be cheaper than the pirated copies. |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 3:02pm On Dec 11, 2006 |
I've failed to find an action/suspense script or a romantic comedy, so I'm just going to write my own. Thanks! |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by nwadinma(f): 3:41pm On Dec 11, 2006 |
Seun, mail me back if you like it ok. once i finish typing the other one i will let you see it. (action, romance& family inhertace , ) |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by Seun(m): 4:04pm On Dec 11, 2006 |
The work of prose (action, crime) you sent me seems to be really brilliant and original, but adaptation won't be easy! |
Re: Wanted: Great Scripts And Stories For Movie Production by yicob(m): 3:43pm On Dec 13, 2006 |
seun, am amazed that you cannot get a good suspense movie or are you just trying to view our stories first then know how you will work on yours? |
