Contest4Steem entry by @the-patriarch: Promoting Literature on Steemit; WRITE A DRAMA FOR STEEM CONTEST
Hello great Steemians and special greetings to all members of PromoSteem 📣 this is my entry for the Contest4Steem contest.
Here is my entry for #Contest4Steem contest hosted by @stephenkendal.
The contest I am proposing is to be tagged: WRITE A DRAMA FOR STEEM contest.
BACKGROUND
Steemit is the first and the most far-reaching decentralized social media, and should be an avenue to pioneer and champion a lot of creativity among our youths. Steemit should be a place where quality content is created and hidden talents are discovered and groomed, the essence of this contest is to discover great literary icons on Steemit.
There are so many Poetry contests going on here on Steemit today but then we seem to neglect the other parts of literature which is Prose and Drama.
The WRITE A DRAMA FOR STEEM CONTEST is aimed at discovering those hidden talents on Steemit that are great script writers, and giving them a platform for exposure using this great Steemit Platform.
HOW THE CONTEST WORKS:
This contest could run in two models:
Model 1: Free Style Script writing
In this model, participants are allowed to write a short ten to fifteen minutes drama on any subject of their choice and submit, they are to be as creative as possible and also be original.
Model 2: Guided Script writing
In this Model, the organisers of the contest are to put forward a title, it could be a title based on current happenings in the society or any title at all, and participants are asked to send in short ten to fifteen minutes drama scripts based on those titles.
For instance the organisers could put up a topic like:
SAY NO TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
OR
CRYPTOCURRENCY THE FUTURE OF GLOBAL ECONOMY
OR
STEEMIT THE FUTURE OF SOCIAL MEDIA FREEDOM
And ask participants to send in short drama scripts on any of these topics.
REWARDS AND BENEFITS OF THIS CONTEST:
This contests has a lot of rewards for both the participants and Steemit as well:
The participants get to earn Steem as part of their reward.
Apart from getting Steem from the reward pool, the participants also gets exposure, people get to see their talents.
The best adjudged scripts could be promoted and even acted during Steem Promo events like Steem get togethers and other Steemit Promotional events.
This contest will draw traffic to Steemit as movie makers and scouts could now come to the Steemit platform to look at this entries and can pick out promising script writers from among them, we all know the movie industry is growing everyday and new talents are discovered daily hence Steemit could also become a talent discovery ground.
These are just to mention a few of the benefits of this contest.
Conclusion
This would really be a great contest that would add value not only to the participants but to Steemit as well and I know it would go a long way in promoting Steemit.
Thanks @stephenkendal for such a great initiative and for all your efforts towards promoting Steem.
