    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Wild Ambitions 9 months, 2 weeks ago

    I agree with Rkwok in that, I could have developed more areas of the story, like her parents reaction to her lesbian lifestyle and so on. Overall, for a first screenplay, I think it’s decent. If I had more […]

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Wild Ambitions 9 months, 2 weeks ago

    I think it works but I agree that I should leave out the word “rogue” as it may be redundant.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, The Road To Jubilee 11 months, 1 week ago

    This was a refreshing screenplay to read given that it has a female lead and a strong emotional track, which I like in films. I really like the concept and can see it as movie, easily. It has a great plot and a […]

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Grazing 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    Your attention to structural details is spot on and you have a good backbone for a film. However, I found the story to be a little unoriginal. I feel like I’ve seen this before. As a woman, I also felt like this […]

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Eternal Spring Fist 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    It’s short and to the point but I’m a little confused about the power struggle. Maybe be a little more specific

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, In Captivity 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    Great longline, I agree with others, just shorten and simplify. Well done!

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Enslavement 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    I think this is a really good logline. It’s clear what the story is about but I’m not sure who the main character is or what their goal is.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Ferocious 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    Great logline but how does the “forbid romance” intersect with the main characters goal? is it a challenge? It also needs to be shortened.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Sympathy Pains 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    I think this is a great logline! Direct and to the point and I know what the story will be about. I’m just not sure if it’s an original idea.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, King of the Unicorn Rodeo 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    I’m not sure if this would turn out to be funny…needs a bit more work.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, The Secret Life of Poppy 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    It’s an interesting story but it needs to be shorter and add a little more mystery to it so it makes me wanna see it. How will this one be different from the original?

  • Profile picture of Samara Bahoor Schilens

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Just Beth 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Great summary of the film, but I don’t see the goal of the main character/s or how they plan on surmounting the “tragedy” in the film. Needs to be a little more specific.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, The New Child 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Great concept and I think this has great story potential, but it needs to be cleaned up a bit. The first sentence is a run on and the “increasing wild” is a bit vague. I think it can be reworded and tightened up a little.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Intrigued 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    It makes me want to read more but I’m not sure what his goal is, to face the nightmare? Also, I need more information to better understand the “nightmare” and the “ugly truth”. In other words, it’s too vague.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, The Behavior Analyst 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Ok, so his goal is to help special children, good start. But I want to know how are those children “special”? Are they psychic, disabled or mentally ill? Also, what challenges might he face? That’s what would make […]

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Fallen Angel 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    I have no idea what this movie is about and I’m not so sure that the sentence is even grammatically correct.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, What The Mind Sees 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Impressive logline. Just the right amount of information and I know exactly what your character’s goal is. I also know how he plans on reaching his goal and I can imagine the challenges he’ll have to face. Nice work!

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Sleeping with a Stranger 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Great start, however I believe the one sentence is too long. Perhaps find a way to break it into two sentences or reduce the words in the one you have. Another thing, what’s your main character’s goal? To stop […]

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Her Own Defense 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Great story idea and I like how specific your logline is about her goal in fighting back, but I’m not sure what the relationship has to do with her goal. Just a little clarification might help.

    samarabahoorschilens commented on the post, Maura Bund 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Wow, excellent logline! But is finding comfort her goal in your film? Perhaps you should touch on a that in your logline since that’s the only question that pops in my mind. Other than that, I’m impressed!
