IN BRIEF Scriptapalooza writing contest offers $10,000 prize Scriptapalooza, Inc. is offering a $10,000 prize for first place in the Scriptapalooza sixth-annual Television Writing Competition. Finalists are also given the op portunity to have their material promoted by Scriptapalooza, Inc. for one year. Scriptapalooza, Inc. President Mark Andruso said the company essentially acts as a management team, but considers itself a “gate way” for up-and-coming writers. Scott Gray, a 2003 Daytime Emmy winner for Outstanding Children's Animated Program for the TV series “Rugrats,” said, “Winning the competition helped get me to the top of the industry ‘to read’ piles, and I was able to sign with CAA (Cre ative Artists Agency).” According to Andruso, more than 4,000 entries were submit ted last year, and 13 finalists were chosen. The three categories include existing one-hour spec scripts, existing half-hour spec scripts and original pilots. Deadline for the competition is Nov. 15, and there is no limit on the number of entries allowed. — Ryan Murphey FOR MORE INFORMATION E-mail Scriptapalooza, Inc. at info@scriptapalooza.com, call (323) 654-5809 orvisitwww.scriptapaloozaTV.com. Spears: Speculation continues about legitimacy of marriage Continued from page 9 Spears and Federline exchanging vows, was released on MTV’s “Total Request Live” two days before the “real” wedding took place. And, her new scent for Elizabeth Arden, Curi ous, hit stores the day before she and Federline tied the knot. Talk about a weekend packed full of much-need ed publicity. Regardless of what really took place that Saturday night, here’s hop ing that they are truly happy. Al though relationships between stars and their backup dancers haven’t had the best track record, maybe Spears and Federline can show every one that marriage isn’t a joke. But un til legitimate proof of the nuptials sur faces, the joke could be on us. amylichty@ daily emerald, com Dance: New season packed with performances Continued from page 7 get on tour earlier,” Dance Africa Di rector Rita Honka said. Other changes this year are the dates of the student-choreo graphed and faculty-choreographed concerts at the Dougherty Dance Theatre. Previously, the student concert was held in the winter and the faculty concert in the spring, but this year the dates will swap. Stoddart said dance faculty wanted the faculty concert to take place in the winter so the depart ment’s advanced students, many who tour with Dance Africa and UORDC in the spring, will be around to participate. Two graduate-student-produced concerts are planned for the year, an increase from the amount of graduate concerts held in previous years. Stod dart said this is due to the growing number of graduate students working on their final projects. “We’re getting more and more stu dents in their final year,” Stoddart said. Graduate student Sarah Neme cek’s concert will be held on Feb. 25 and 26 at the Dougherty Dance The atre, and she said she is planning a collaborative production with the School of Music composers, a Uni versity sculptor and the 3-D art pro gram at the University. “There will be 200 bells hanging in the theater, and the dancers’ move ments will trigger the bells,” Neme cek said. The second graduate concert, scheduled for May 27 and 28, will display the work of graduate stu dent Dominique Chartrand. Kennedy said Chartrand plans to use the Pioneer Cemetery for part of her show. The show will begin at the cemetery at dusk. “She’s trying to reclaim the site in a positive way,” Kennedy said. natchilingerian@dailyemerald. com IREfiON DAILY ^ Cultural Forum | For more information: 346-4373 or drop by Suite 2 in the EMU Your campus connection for great music, visual arts, film, contemporary issues and performing arts events!
