Script-ditions...

Like holding auditions for screen roles, imagine the Tamizh cinema industry holding 'auditions' for original scripts and stories. Call them 'script-ditions', if you like. People from all over the country and state can walk in carrying fresh and original concepts, narrate their stories from start to finish, perhaps even have another person tag along to cover certain portions of the script. Perhaps new safety clauses can be enforced before the Tamil cinema sector starts accepting scripts written in full or as detailed synopses, submitted from anywhere and everywhere to 'story-casting' directors and/or writers, who will then pore over the scripts that call to them, much like publishers perusing manuscripts from authors, choosing the ones they like, and giving payment and credit where it's due. If all goes well, we may finally see a resurgence in original storytelling for the screen, which can only ever be a good thing in this day and age of 'cut-copy-paste'. there's no dearth of storytellers in TN and India with exceptional tales just waiting to add another gold-leaf to the crown of Tamizh cinema.
