Short scripts: Video Nasty,Weapon of Choice, Tattoo.
Hi Everyone,
I'm an aspiring writer from England who has written three short scripts. Details are below:-
Short script 1.
Title: Video Nasty.
Genre: Comedy.
Synopsis: Two 16 year old girls, Reena(Indian) and Hannah(English) make their own horror movie as part of a school project. Using a DV camera, they coerce their friends into making a movie called ‘Video Nasty’. Reena’s boyfriend Ryan(English) plays an avenging zombie in the film and her friend Heather(Black) plays the heroine.
Short script 2.
Title: Weapon of Choice.
Genre: Sci-Fi.
Synopsis: In a future Britain, a weapon is developed which can kill any specific person without destroying property or causing collateral damage. The weapon orbits the Earth from a satellite and is controlled by a government organization called ‘Weapon of Choice’. One of its operatives, Simon abuses this power to kill an innocent man.
Short script 3.
Title: Tattoo.
Genre: Comedy.
Synopsis: David just can’t keep his tattoos on his body. They keep coming to life and jumping free of him. His car, ship and dragon tattoos simply won’t stay put. After receiving an anonymous email, David invests in some specially designed suction patches which suck his wayward tattoos back onto his body. Unfortunately for him, the suction patches work so well, they suck the tattoos ‘inside’ him where they run amok.
If there are any writers/filmmakers who would like to read any of these for potential production/collaboration then please get in touch via email. Thanks.

Oooooo, that third one sounds REALLY good.
Could easily be a feature length high concept comedy with Y-gen appeal.

If there is a film school or Univ. film department, try approaching students there, who need to make films for their program but are often short on script ideas because, hey, they're just college kids.
For the first one. Not the tattoo one. I think you ought to consider working that one up into 110 page item.
Your problem: numbers 2 and 3 are too expensive for shorts. Think about the budget required to do them...for a 15 minute film with no commercial prospects?
