Submitted to the 6th annual stage 32 sci-fi/fantasy screenwriting contest last night a pilot that I have been submitting to several festivals and doing ok with. Then I looked at my ending and was like "Hmmm its last minute rewrite time!" as all great thoughts go before a deadline. So I did that as my first experience on this platform. It's a pilot from a series that is my response to George Orwell's "1984". The last line of that book is "He loves big brother". My log line is "Big Brother loves you back." The series will cover the rise of universal wealth and how society could go from a Cyberpunk type dystopia to basically early Star Trek. Yeah I am still working on the pitch. Hope you all are having a great day.

Not really introducing myself, but kind of. Am a bit of a neurotic writer after I have submitted to a festival. I will forget about it in a couple of days when I get back to writing other things. Yeah that's me, been writing since 3rd grade, many adventures along the way. Some good some bad, film is home for me. Spent most of the 10 years as a crew member and indie producer in Chicago. Just recently been doing more and more Production Design work on music video's and writing a ton.

I entered the sci-fi/fantasy screenwriting contest too; it's a sci-fi rom-com, "Stand Tall!" It puts a spin on the "giant woman" movie subgenre, with both humor and heart.

Great to meet you, Jeffrey Botelho. Your series sounds interesting. I remember reading "1984." It was one of my favorite books. The logline you have is more of a tagline. I can share a logline template with you if you like.

Good luck mate. Very neat premise! I agree with Maurice. A logline is more of a summation of the entire plot in 1 -2 sentences.
