TURN YOUR CREATIVITY LOOSE

Can you create a plot that will take viewers to a whole new world of excitement, suspense and thrill? Can you create characters that viewers can relate with, share their passion and emotions, fall in love with, detest, hate or idolize? Have you got the words to tell a story vividly and with imagery, and set the emotions flowing from your viewers? Can you make your viewers laugh, cry, mourn, celebrate, and stay on the edge of their seat?

Then this is your chance to show your stuff!
