Let's say I came into 1.37 billion dollars. Let's go a step further and say I used it to start my very own b-movie studio. Now, I just need ideas on the next ScyFy Original hit.
Awardees will have a $500,000 cleared and be shown at 2:30am on the critically acclaimed ScyFy channel, and be shown on any bad movie marathon.
Only science fiction, fantasy or monster movies will be considered. $100,000 extra if you can secure a dated TV star or reformed porn actress.
The movie will have 90 days for writing, filming and editing. There will be 3 antiquated MacBook Pros available on a first come, first served basis for any CGI work (3 hour maximum if there's a line.)
The funds MUST be used for production and payroll ONLY. Any unused funds will be returned at the end of editing.
The proper pitch will be:
TITLE (in all caps)
A hook (best done if you say: "picture it/this...)
A brief synopsis
A "mic drop" statement to close the deal
If the picture actually makes anything, you would get 1% of the revenues, after the $500,000 is made back.
