Check out 4laughs for a great new (Window of) Opportunity.
New Loaded/4laughs comp
Who's entering this?
I'm just about to put the finishing touches to my first entry.
I looked but not sure whether to. With just one winner for just a sketch it's a bit of a lottery.
Did anyone have a punt at this?
I'd echo somebody else on this forum in saying this seems a very user-unfriendly site going, which puts me off applying for any of their comps.
I've managed to get 4 entries done, but not sent them off yet. Better do it tonight.
I used to read Loaded as a teenager and loved their irreverent comic strips, so I've enjoyed this comp.
Yeah, I used to enjoy that Office Pest character when I were a young 'un.
You wrote four already? Were you a stickler for the brief?
I've stickled quite well.
One of them is "Get Rich, get drunk, get loaded" rather than "Get drunk, get rich, get loaded", but that should be ok.
I used to like Newsagent Provocateur.
Oh, I've not stickled to anywhere near that degree. I just went for the three elements and bunged them all in. It felt dirty, I don't mind telling you, but not as much as filming that Dorito ad is going to...

I think you'd be foolish to let the site's technical issues stop you entering. This competition's prize is a credit in Loaded. And, a likely contact at Loaded. Even if you're a sitcom writer, a producer will be more inclined to read your work if you have credits, whatever they are. You might have previous credits, but i can't see the harm in another! Hmmmm, maybe you're cunning plan is to put off the competition !?
anyone got a link?
I did in fact enter this but the results ain't up yet. Was meant to be 20 March, ho hum...
No doubt they're working overtime to figure out how many years to write my contract for.
