I love their (Adventure/Action Festival) concept of multiple ways to get your story out: from logline, to 1st scene, to full screenplay. The fast turnaround for feedback is critical for me as I’m sure it is with many new writers — as many new drafts have been made by the time most contests provide feedback… Continue reading ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – March 29 2019

It was so very cool to see! One of the most rewarding aspects of filmmaking is getting to sit in a theatre and experience an audience react to your work. Since I wasn’t able to be in Toronto for the screening, getting to hear the audience talk about it was the next best thing. Luke… Continue reading ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – March 5 2019
ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – January 20 2019
It was nice to hear that the audio design was appreciated, particularly that knee stomp (Hi Stewart!). We spent a lot of time making it ‘wetter’, so it’s nice to hear it specifically mentioned. It was also nice to hear the production design was appreciated. The mention of that shot where everything is swept off… Continue reading ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – January 20 2019

Screenwriter Alan Rosenfeld (Jonny Quest: The Terror of Dr. Zin) I needed a starting point to kick off this adaptation. A gauge on not only my ability to write a complete script but also on how other fans would take to seeing one of their childhood icons come to life again. There are many voices when… Continue reading ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – January 14 2019

I was very happy that people really seemed to get my film. Action short films are sometimes a hard sell. There’s nothing so visceral, powerful and ugly as two people punching the s%&t out of each other with their fists. But weirdly enough, I think words have as much– maybe even more, destructive power! I… Continue reading ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – November 29 2018

Thank you very much for your well-considered feedback. I’ve read through your feedback a couple of times and thought I’d let you know it’s very actionable feedback and something I feel I can use to make me a better writer altogether. – George Reese, Feature Screenplay “Reconquista” A FilmFreeway preferred festival: WATCH Winning Action/Adventure Screenplay… Continue reading ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – November 28 2018

This is the most intensive and helpful script notes I have received from any contest or paid reader. I would have paid for these notes without having entered the contest. If I had this reader years before, I wouldn’t be so disheartened and soured as I am now on screenwriting. If I ever regain my… Continue reading ACTION/ADVENTURE Festival Testimonial – November 26 2018
