Script Competition
|
|
The first, and very successful, Back
to the Bay Script writing competition has now come to a
conclusion, with two very worthy winners about to be
announced by Coral. We had a number of really good entries
and it was no mean task whittling them down to a final few.
All of the judges have read and commented upon every script
and we will be sending a summary of their comments to every
entrant. The judges read scripts which were each given a
number so they had no idea who had written what until after
they had come to a conclusion ... although those who
regularly frequent the forum's fan fic section did have an
inkling as to who might have written one or two of the
entries.
We are all keen to know how things progress in relation to
these storylines, particularly that of the 17 and under
winner, which had everyone gripped and eager to know what
comes next, so we very much hope that all of our finalists
will post on the forum about how they would take their
stories forward.
The judges were headed up by the inimitable Dramaqueen,
Coral Drouyn, AWGIE winner and former Script Producer on
Home and Away. She was joined in the judging process by
forum members John003au, Dean and SkyKat. They spent a lot
of time reading and re reading, commenting upon and
discussing the various scripts. The Back to the Bay staff
would like to personally thank each and every one of them
for giving up so much time to this task. It is greatly
appreciated. They have been bombarded with e mails and PM's
by Frankie, who is already planning next year's competition,
and have borne this with fortitude and good humour.
We would particularly like to thank Coral Drouyn, who
despite being in the middle of writing an important script,
gave up her time to help us anyway. She has also graciously
agreed to formally announce the winners....just like they do
at the Oscars, the LOGIES and the AWGIES!
