    My name is Jackie Macgirvin. My screen plays are faith-based and/or clean humor.

    Here’s the log line for my rom-com, Thanks For the Memories. It has an emphasis on forgiveness:

    A 29-year-old, soured on
    marriage by his parents’ divorce, struggles to cope when both parents end up
    convalescing at his home. The father, with amnesia, doesn’t remember having a
    son or ex-wife. The angry ex-wife schemes to get her ex-husband out of the
    house on “mental issues.” A vivacious physical therapist challenges the son’s
    vow to never fall in love.

    Partner needed!

    My name is Bernice Ye. I know I’m probably the one with much less screenwriting experience than y’all 😅, but that also means I have fresh eyes from taking it all in from Hal’s model. And I promise you with great support, attention, and time. Also, from years of doing standup comedy, I did learn how to find the funny through authentic, vulnerable topics and stories.

    Here is the logline of my screenplay, “The Girl with the Red Scarf” (working title):

    A girl prodigy of China’s one-child policy pursues a triumph in the most important exam of her life but must sacrifice and betray her first love under the pressure of her school and family.

    I can relate with your logline. Can you make it a sentence??

    • Jackie Macgirvin

      Member
      April 15, 2021 at 2:54 am

      Alfred, If I’m limited to one sentence I guess it would read like this: A 29-year-old, soured on marriage by his parents’ divorce, struggles to cope when both parents end up
      convalescing at his home — his father with amnesia, along with his angry ex-wife.

      Do you like that better?

      Hi Alfred, I’ve massaged it a little more after reading Hal’s info on log lines. Any feed back for me?

      LOGLINE
      REVISED: A
      29-year-old, estranged from his parents, and soured on marriage from their
      divorce, struggles to cope when both parents end up convalescing at his home —
      his father’s amnesia prevents him from recognizing Jacob or his ex-wife.

      I need feedback on my beats and elevating, which I had to shorten to get the assignment in.

    My name is Rico. I’m looking for partner/s sharing my passion to be able to tell my story, and your stories, in the most effective and entertaining way.

    My story is about a middle-aged man who have lived in America for more that 25 years but never lost his desire to go back to his native land and help in the needed transformation. He went for a visit, but his trip turned into a nightmare when he encountered the same, even worse, enemies of the land- poverty, corruption, lawlessness, ignorance and human rights abuses- reasons why he left in the first place. Disappointed, he went back to America, never losing his hope that someday he can go back for good in his beloved birthplace.

    It is my hope that the human and cultural interest of my story will entice others to walk with me through this trek. Thank you.

        OK Dorothea, let’s partner up and give it our best shot. It appears like our stories has a similar theme. I hope that our schedule will fit our class’s schedule. With Hal’s and Cheryl’s guidance, I think we should be able to get our stories going. Thank you for your interest in teaming up with me. Let me know if you need more information about my script.

          Hi @Rico Cadayona and @Dorothea Bonneau ,

          I know you two are already paired up, but my partner went with a different partner within her genre, and I was originally very interested in partnering with you since you are writing in topics and themes that I feel passionate about (myself is a middle-aged immigrant who lived in America for 17 years).

          So I’m wondering if you are interested in doing a three-way partnering up, or if any of you is interested in taking up another partner. It’s a long shot but I would really appreciate your consideration. Thank you so much for helping out a fellow student.

          This is my logline: The Girl with the Red Scarf

          A girl prodigy of China’s one-child policy pursues a triumph in the most important exam of her life, even though she is cruelly punished by her school and shamed by her family because she falls in love.

    Hi There,

    My name is Christina Parker. I’m from Australia.

    I need a partner please.

    Adventure/Family 8 episode TV Series

    Logline: Connor, 14, finds a mysterious Egyptian box in an abandoned mineshaft. Opening it unleashes the ten plagues of Egypt on his town. Connor and his friends have to battle not only the plagues but two desperate criminals to stop the last plague, Death of the first-born.

      Hi, Christina,

      Would you consider partnering with me?

      My logline: Logline: Lane Baer, a mid-list writer, takes a job teach literature in a girl’s school to support his family. The history teacher is murdered. On the day of his death, all the three Baers cross his path. Who is the murderer? The Papa Bear, the Mama Bear, or the Baby Bear?

      Your work is more family oriented but the principles for telling a good story are the same. I’m a little late looking for a partner. I think this platform is difficult to navigate.

      Onward

      Think the green umbrella symbol is very important. PS I am brief and to the point.
