The Rules:

Reading Submissions

Anyone with WWW access can read submissions on this exchange. To read submissions, navigate to the submission of interest by single clicking on the links from the list of topics and subtopics. You can navigate backwards using the navigation bars at the top of each page. Adding your Storyline/Synopsis

If you would like to submit the Storyline/Synopsis of a screenplay that you either are working on, have completed, or simply an idea for one that you wish to develop and would like to "Pitch" in the IndustryCentral ScreenWriters' Exchange, you are welcome to do so. The first step is to register as a user on this site by clicking on any "Login/Register" link and following the instructions. Please note that not everyone is approved and in theory should have some involvement or association with the Motion Picture & Television Industry. Once you have completed this process, simply navigate to the Genre' that is appropriate and click on the "Submit a Synopis" button.

Your submission will be reviewed by one of our Expert Moderators who may chose to offer a brief analysis of your submission. This process may take a day or two to complete as our moderators are busy working professionals who have agreed to volunteer their time.

In the spirit of cooperative feedback, your submission then becomes part of an open forum where others may add comments. Hopefully within these comments you may find a new twist or idea that might just make your screenplay get that all important option that is the first step in reaching the big or small screen!

Contributing to Submissions

Authenticated (logged in) readers are encouraged to offer constructive feedback on any of the storyline/synopsis' already submitted to the exchange in order to assist the Writer in developing his or her script. In order to contribute feedback or post a new storyline/synopsis of your own you must first complete the registration process by getting an account. To offer feedback to an existing submission, fill in the "Add a Message" box at the bottom of the page. You may use formatting (source) codes or basic HTML tags to improve the appearance of your post via our basic HTML WYSIWYG Editor. At the discretion of the moderators, the discussion may allow public posting or may require a user account (username and password). Follow the instructions on the form to supply the necessary credentials for posting.

Where available, you may click on a "Submit a Synopsis" button to start a new discussion. This will add a subtopic with the subject you specify and start a conversation with the initial message that you specify. After filling in the subject line, post a message as described above.

Rules and "Netiquette"

When writing your messages, please use the same courtesy that you would show when speaking face-to-face with someone. Flames, insults, and personal attacks will not be tolerated. It's fine to disagree strongly with opinions, ideas, and facts, but always with respect for the other person. Great minds do not always think alike, and that's where the fun is! Also, note that messages express the thoughts of the writers, not the exchange or its moderators.
