How to Win
Don't
write a treatment; this is
more like a 60-second pitch. And it’s
OK to leave some mystery: stimulate our imagination! EXAMPLES: read last year's winners--and
all the entries--here.
Warm yourself up by writing new narrations for an existing episode, and read it aloud to friends to see if they
recognize which episode. Then write the narrations for your original idea.
- Maximum word count, excluding titles and labels: 150 words total,
both
narrations combined.
- Maximum entries: 2 per person.
- Title and Narrations only—any additional content will be
ignored.
- We will not consider a previous
entry.
- Deadline:
Halloween 2018 (October 31)
