I know you said you don't do promos so I'll understand if you delete this, but please give it a read first?
I'm [poorly] running the tumblr for MamaBuckle Films, an indie filmmaking company that hosts a FREE writing contest, and the winner gets made into a short film. We need more writers to enter the contest!! We do almost nothing for marketing because the entire budget (and then some) goes to making the films.
We are hoping to grow in the near future enough to be able to provide a cash prize to the winners, but for now, it's still a great opportunity for writers to have a short story made into a real production.
Here is a link to one of the finished films, called Resin. [you can copy-paste the link for internet safety, it's YouTube not spam I promise!]
While there isn't a cash prize (YET) the winner retains FULL CREDIT and once it's finished, they are welcome to use the film as a proof of concept or as a proof of talent. It will look good on a writing resume!
The films are full productions with a full crew, filmed in 4K with sound, lighting, production design, music, and real actors. And you don't need to be a screenwriter to enter! The most recent winner won with a short story!
To keep it short[er], you can find the details of the current contest and requirements on our website here: https://www.mamabucklefilms.com/buckle-up-challenge
I've been following this blog on my main account for a while and I always appreciate your advice and anti-AI stance. My official question is: would you be open to sharing this as an opportunity for your followers, and to help us get more entries?
If not I completely understand. If yes, thank you!!!
