Welcome to my Blog. I am Gilbert
Mbeh, your favorite screenwriter and Film Director, and I am here to save the industry. Well,
don’t fret yet or before you start criticizing, I didn’t mean to say the
industry would be going out of business without me. Unfortunately people like
you and I could go out of business and eventually out of the industry without
each other. That’s why I wrote this blog and I suppose that’s why you’re here.
So before we go any further, let's starts from the beginning.
BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE
SCREENPLAY
BY
GILBERT MBEH
FADE IN.
INT.
GILBERT MBEH BLOG – NIGHT
It is dark; nothing is clear enough for
us to see. A chap in his 20s sits on a dining table, we’d call him Gilbert. Gilbert
busily writes on a piece of paper brightened by a single candle light.
INT.
YOUR BLOG – NIGHT
A big office. At the attic of a
building. Stylishly decorated, expensive everything, framed pictures of
memorable awards giving ceremonies.
John sits behind his desk of power. The
most expensive wooden desk you’d find in the world market. It’s a sleepless
night, and everything’s burning behind his eyes.
INT.
YOUR BLOG – NIGHT
John paces around the room then suddenly
stops. John gazes at the window, hesitant. A threatening silence fills the
room.
Resolved, John walks to the window.
JOHN POV – THE YARD BELOW.
Down in the yard below is a crowd of
unhappy men and women. Actors, actresses, producers, Directors, costume
designers, Sound editors, Camera men and fans.
The crowd looks up at John.
John is moved by the determination on
their faces.
John walks back to his desk.
INT. GILBERT MBEH BLOG
– NIGHT
The last flame of the candle is beginning to fade away. There is a hint
of smile on Gilbert's face as he writes. A trace of relief gradually builds on
Gilbert face when…
The candle light fades away
and we are in dark.
The darkness is tyrannical; we hear the sound of a wall clock ticking in
the dark like a time boom.
INT. YOUR BLOG STAIRWAY
– NIGHT
John and his assistant
hastily walk up the stairway.
EXT. YOUR BLOG ROOFTOP
– NIGHT
John and his Assistant emerge
from an emergency exit door and heads toward the center of the rooftop where a
chopper wait.
INT. GILBERT MBEH BLOG
– NIGHT
We are still in darkness the
clock still ticking.
INT. GILBERT MBEH BLOG
– CONTINUOUS
We now hear the sound of a chopper approaching in the distance when suddenly…
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR BOOM, BOOM! GUN SHOTS, ROCKETS BEING FIRED.
Indistinct
voices, military men voices yelling out orders.
GO! GO! The noise is ear-busting, and we are still in dark.
Whatever might be going on outside, it’s apocalyptic.
A sudden silence cut down…
INT. GILBERT MBEH BLOG – CONTINUOUS
In the oppressive darkness, we hear footsteps approaching. The footsteps
suddenly reach for a stop. The silence is dreadful.
We can distinct Gilbert’s heart beats from the ticking clock if we
listen kindly.
Just when we think we heard
it…
Someone SLAMS the door in. Three
men silhouettes appear from the penetrating moonlight.
JOHN
We are here for you, Mr. Gilbert.
But there is no reply at the
other end…
within moment of a brief silence…
GILBERT
Even
though I sit in the shadow of darkness,
I
shall not be afraid. The Lord is my refuge and my fortress, and in him I trust.
A thousand might fall at my side, and ten thousands at my right hand; but it
shall not come near me.
What
do you want from me?
JOHN
The scripts Mr. Gilbert. Do you have them?
GILBERT
Greater shall be you that respect my credits.
JOHN
We
do not have much time left Mr. Gilbert; if we lost the building we lost
everything.
GILBERT
I’m ready.
DISSOLVE TO:
EXT. STUDIO

THE
DIRECTOR
