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

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 – SHOOTING STAGE – DAY

30 people jamming on a set stage. Actors and actresses waiting. The cameramen are ready. The Director surveys the scene.

THE DIRECTOR

(Yells)

FADE OUT.

                                                                       THE END
