The Basics
For those checking this draft out for the first time, let me explain some of the basics. It's very simple.
- Each participant will be putting together a hypothetical future film. You will be picking a director, your acting cast, and any other technical specialists you wish. This will be done through a snake style draft, with eight rounds (and the final two rounds being two selections per pick). You may pick any of these positions with any of your selections.
- Once the draft is finished, and you have your entire cast and crew set in place, you will be putting together a short write-up, giving us the details about your film. These write-ups can be as detailed as you want them to be, but usually includes the following....
1. Film Title
2. List of Characters/Corresponding Actor
3. A one paragraph description of what your film is about
Many participants also choose to write up their whole plot description, which is very much welcomed.
Rules
1. Trading is allowed, but must follow certain guidelines. Draft picks must be traded before the pick comes up in the draft. This is so that people aren't shopping around their pick while sitting on the clock. As well, all completed trades must be PM'd to me, and make sure that the trade is "official" before doing so.
2. After the draft is over, a 24 hour undrafted free agency period will begin, in which you can select any remaining roles you have left to fill on a first come first serve basis.
3. You are given 4 hours OTC (on the clock) before you are skipped. If you are skipped, the draft will move on without you, but you can come back at any time to make up lost picks. OTC time is subject to change.
4. IF YOU SEE THAT YOUR PICK IS COMING UP IN THE ORDER SOON, AND YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU'LL BE AVAILABLE TO MAKE THE PICK, PM YOUR PICK TO ME!
So if this sounds like something you'd want to do, sign up now! If it wasn't awesome we wouldn't be on the 15th one.

I'll launch this once we get around 10. I'm gonna be pretty pumped if my movie can turn out how I hope. _________________

Sounds good, GJ. I hope nobody else takes my idea. I'd be surprised though. I'd even be very surprised if someone drafts anybody I plan on.  _________________
