Script Project: Blind collaboration

City HallEric Estrin selected two winners who have never met for the LA Observed Script Project t-shirt this week. Bill Braunstein was new to Los Angeles in 1985 when the Ross Dress for Less store in the Fairfax district blew up — due to methane from the gas fields under that whole area. It informed his submission for Right of Way, the noir story being written by LA Observed readers. Braunstein is a Los Angeles-based writer/producer who has worked in television for so long "he's stopped giving all his credits in job and pitch meetings," and a former senior editor of Los Angeles Magazine. Maria Paola Chironi is an online editor and screenwriter in London who has been writing scripts since she got the screenwriting bug in 2006. "I have been in Los Angeles many times," she writes, "but it's difficult to catch on the pages the vibes of a city you don't live in. That's the reason why I focused more on the characters and their conflicts." See where they took the story, check in with Eric's running script notes blog, and submit your pages by the end of the weekend.
