non-offensive material will be considered. Full details on the

Not a competition, but the
following site has got to be of interest to anyone writing
film, TV and theatre scripts. Take a look:
Open
Spectrum "Open Spectrum is a
unique and free-to-join website that provides the platform for
Writers and Film-makers to converge, collaborate and produce.
Its main aim is to provide opportunities and help to film,
television and theatre writers in the UK and therefore boost
the UK film, television and theatre industries.
The site operates on a peer reviewing system
- writers upload their scripts to the site and then all members
review and rate the scripts to produce a Monthly Top Ten.
Producers and film-makers then search through our filtered
archives to find the writers and scripts that they want. Not
only does it provide previously rated scripts and writers, but
it offers the writer invaluable, impartial feedback on their
work which will contribute to future drafts.
As a community, Open Spectrum is also
designed to bring people in the industry together and as the UK
Short Film Industry, in particular, starts to gather momentum,
we hope to be riding at the very forefront of that
wave.
To celebrate the launch, Open Spectrum and
all its services is completely free for a limited time and we
want as many as possible to reap the benefits of this free
period. To try out the site for yourself please visit
www.theopenspectrum.co.uk and sign up for free. More details
