I have a simple question about one script I’m currently working on: it has 10 short stories all based in Greece in different cities and areas. Maybe you know the movies “New York, I love you” and “Paris, je t’aime”. Basically, it is such a script, but located in Greece. Do you think this type of script is marketable in any way? And should I write one logline for the whole script or 10 different ones for each story? Thank you for your help in advance! Savas

I've tried my hand at this sort of script a couple of times before, and putting it into a simple traditional "logline" is not easy at all. DO a search for "Woodstock" on his site and you'll find my attempts, which had some great feedback on it. Basically, you need to find the overarching theme and try to work something around that.

As for it being "marketable", it will be if you can find the ensemble cast to back it up. If not, it's not easy. Hope it work out, and hope this helps!

If, as Richiev pointed out, you have a framing device to hold all the stories together, you could structure a series out of it. Otherwise, most films that follow the paradigm you're proposing were not commercial successes and were made more as vanity projects as a result of industry insiders having access to the necessary resources.

Why not pick the most interesting short films in your pool of 10 and work on them. Once you're able to get a short film, or two, right then move on to working on long form projects.
