Paid on delivery
We have a small community based, non-for-profit theatre company. We have a script that we want to produce locally. The script is only four characters and one location. Require someone with a bit of creativity and know-how to finish the script for us. Needs an amazing ending! SCRIPT OUTLINE: Four hollywood-screen writers are locked in a room. Their mission: craft the most realistic and philosophical script about first contact with an alien race. But the writers can't agree on anything! Can the planet survive, or will earth cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war? The script is wholly dialouge-based, very fast paced, witty and clever, kind of sounds like dialogue from 'The West Wing' television series, and brings up themes of the origins of the universe, the meaning of life, and the existence of god (although the script doesn't take sides). It is a small project and the script is only 11 pages at the moment. it probably only needs a couple pages to finish it. But the ending needs to be... WOW!!! I have attached the script to those interested, and happy to entertain suggestions and ideas before awarding the project.

I haven't been able to see an attachment for your play, but it sounds fun and bamboozling. I cannot offer any direction that it can go in without seeing it, but I do think from your description that it should be completely out of the box. From what I understand from your description you are looking for someone to edit your work and offer advice. I would love to be apart of your project, I am an emerging author and I have written two novels and 15 short stories as well as being a journalist for 10 years. To be honest, I actually think you will be able to come up with the best ending for your show but I am willing to thrash around some ideas and give you some prompts to lead your way into a new direction that makes sense with the play so far and wraps up the themes you have started (such big ideas), but is also unexpected!

“Offer me this job,” he said, “and I’ll take it and make you proud!” That’s not the traditional way to open the cover letter for a job application, but I take the “creative” in creative writing very seriously. Indeed, an employer can expect from me consistent creativity and seriousness of purpose. After years of study, I have mastered the techniques, mechanics, and, most importantly, dynamics which make the written word engaging. I strive, in innovative ways, to craft complex ideas into accessible and readable concepts that jump off the page and into the reader’s thoughts. In my opinion, capturing the moment is only part of the craft. Of equal or greater importance is building reader interest and involvement — making the reader an actual participant in the moment. Being able to do so is one of my greatest skills. Therefore, when that moment arrives, I am confident that the message, and with it, the story, will “pop” so as to evoke the desired emotional response. Over the years, I have honed my writing skills to enable flawless execution in meticulous language. I will not only help you with the hook, line, and sinker, I will get you into the boat and take you to the biggest catch.

"If you want readable, engaging and accurate copy, then look no further. Translation, Ghost writing, rewriting, Web content, Script writing, copy writing, SEO article and web content is what I can help you with, thanks to many years of writing entertaining articles of my own and also solid experience of adding a human touch to investment documents and academic work. My ability to communicate has been the one common theme amongst a varied career that has moved through journalism, PR, property investment, and website copy. Despite being born with an artistic writing style, the many different corporate environments I have found myself in (including the management of a department) have shown me that managing a client and delivering on a brief on their terms is infinitely more rewarding than just churning out clever words. If your project is just to fill space and tick a box, then don't bother talking to me, but if you want to work together on something that needs a creative and personable twist, then I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, first of all, congratulations for your almost ready script! My name is Lili, I'm an experienced ghostwriter in many genres, including romance, thriller and fantasy. I've recently turned two scripts into novels and a novel into a script, all of these to the satisfaction of my clients. I love writing dialogue, I believe that good dialogue is the backbone of every excellent story. I used to perform in an amateur acting company as well where I was in charge of adapting books for the stage. Check out my portfolio for samples of my work. Thank you for considering me, I'd love to work on your project!

The task requires finishing a script. I have double-majored in Business Administration and Journalism and Mass Communication. I have worked as a brand manager and then as a marketing manager for FMCG companies with international brands. Currently, I am running a website myself and freelancing for different projects. I am not sure I am the right person for the project but it sounded very interesting and I wanted to know more about it. You mention about an attachment but I didn't see it. Maybe you can send it to me and then we can discuss in advance any possible direction before deciding if I am the appropriate candidate for the job.

Dear employer, I was very interested by this project, so I decided to propose my services. I'm a writer, mostly in spanish, but I have some works to show you in english. I would like to take part in this play, I can offer my experience and knowledge on the philosophy field, because I'm about to finish my major in the discipline. I'm a huge cinephile, so storytelling is something that I really love. If you are interested we can chat and get to know each other and each other's ideas. Thanks for your time. With kind regards, David.

Hi there. I am very accomplished in script writing -- I have written many short scripts and also several full length plays and musicals. I would be happy to finish your script -- I can't find the script and if you could send it to me I would be grateful. I got the sense of it from what you described but I would love to read it, as it sounds just up my alley. I have my own theatre (the Wilde Festival) and I have worked in theatre for more than thirty years. I will write a great play... Please contact me to discuss this at your earliest convenience.

Hi there. I'm a screenwriter. Been making short films for the past 3 years now. Granted, I've never written about the origins of the universe or God but your idea sounds really interesting and I'm willing to help you with it, if you'll have me. If you could maybe send me your script, I'll read it over and share with you any ideas that I have. Thanks and good luck.

For the end of this story, I imagine that the writer's will realize a cosmic truth larger than themselves, or anything on earth, and they will react to this differently based on their characters and personalities. Want to know what this cosmic insight is, that will change these people's lives for ever? You will just have to hire me ;)

I would adore to take part in this project. I have been in the theatre since 1998, swept straight As in drama class through high school, and now I work at an independent theatre company as an actor and as a content contributor. This means I have a very good command of what "works" on a stage and what doesn't. I am a third year university student who speaks English as a first language. I have an interest in the key themes you mentioned and look forward to hear from you.
