A finished screenplay

**Bayabas** · 05-21-2005, 03:25 AM

Hi all, I have recently finished writing a screenplay and would like to know if there is anyone who can help me out with getting the script into the hands of some producers or directors in Cebu. The script has already been copyrighted. The title is Sina Ni Bathala (The Envy of the Gods, in my preferred English translation). The story involves five characters: a GRO, a sociology professor, a drugdealer, a corrupt police sargeant, and a priest. Their lives get tangled up together... Anyway, I hope somebody could help me with some contact info of producers or directors. Thank you in advance.

Also, the script is written in Cebuano... Sorry, I forgot to mention that..

Send a PM to

pnoize2k4

or

jomark of this forum... They are experienced indy filmmakers, and they might be able to lead you somewhere... even to the possibility of directing the story you have made yourself.

you could send it to me, but there's not much I could do but look at it.

Or you could join the cinemanila Co-production meeting.

they could help you shop your script around.

The script has already been copyrighted.

i have actually received the said screenplay and its revisions. i have not reviewed this 54 page script as i am still busy.

however, i seriously doubt that this script is protected through copyright. since copyright can only be issued by the US Library of Congress or its Philippine counterpart, the National Library. It might be registered with the Writer's Guild which can only establish the material's date of existence.

registration is $20.00

If there's a WGA, I suppose there's a WGP as well, right?

ignoy lagi ko anang copyrights lagi....murag man ingon ana sad siguro ko....

Sayun ra nang magpa copyright, ingon si Carlo Borromeo na basta naa lai date, copyrighted na na! So butangi ug date!

The best way to do that is to SEND IT TO YOURSELF via email or snail mail.
