I enjoy writing scripts and stories for all kind of genres but particularly sci-fi and horror as they give more room for your imagination. I hope one day to become a writer/director.

Dialogue is my weak point and sometimes I have trouble writing down what I'm imagining.

Those having trouble writing scripts, here are some useful websites:

www.filmmaking.com - has loads of advice for writing and directing.

www.simplyscripts.com - best way to learn how to write scripts is to read as many others as possible in my opinion.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scr...art_Gold.shtml - a program which sets out word for writing scripts, plays and even comic books, saves a lot of time.

I have made a horror in my directing class in high school. It was not that good, even though it won the best movie in the school (better then everyone elses movies). The movie had like no budget (I think we spent about $200 for it). :)

I have similar problems, but in reverse... I set out to write an "Airplane"-type zombie movie called "Necromaniac", then after the first draft, we realized I'd accidentally written a story strong enough to be a straight horror/mystery. This wound up being THE RESURRECTION GAME.

I set out to write a straight comedy for SEVERE INJURIES, then accidentally made the plot and characters strong enough to (almost) stand on their own in a straightforward slasher movie (okay, not quite, but I did have to fight with it).

Sometimes scripts want to be the scripts they want to be. That's usually where the true fun of writing comes in.

I have made three films thus far. The first was entitled "Mirror Image" and it involved two spirits, one nice one and one pissed as hell. Both spirits are trying to send messages to the people who now live in the house where the spirits once lived. Eventually you learned of a link between the people now and the ghosts from the past. The second film was entitled "Mentality" which involves a 12 year old girl in therapy for 'something.' She sits in therapy listening, but not really listening leading the psychiatrist and her assistant to a rather disturbing conclusion. The third film, "Letting Go," involves a girl and her best friend who have experienced something in their past. Initially, the viewers don't know what it is, put through flashbacks, more and more of a significant event comes to light, which then leads to an unexpected twist. I don't know if the movies are any good, all I know is that I had a great time with my friends making the films and that is all the really matters.

Baring in mind, that the films have much more of the mental aspect of horror to them as opposed to the blood and gore(except for "Mentality")
