Create your own Alien fan film for 20th Century Fox to celebrate Alien's 40th!

This would be interesting, i am not sure i could WRITE a 5-10 minute Scene/Short though, not considering the idea is likely to be about the Xenomorph or Related.

Suppose i could give it some thought though...

• Slow, atmospheric buildups that isolated the viewer in the emptiness of space, anxiously waiting for something to jump from the darkness. In the school of Hitchcockian suspense, what isn’t seen is even scarier than what is! 

• The first true badass female protagonist in science fiction and horror. In defiance of orders, this powerful woman summoned immense strength and grit to face down the most primal of fears. 

• “Space truckers” – everyday working men and women waiting to talk about their bonus situations and tying the film to its realism and reliability.

LOOKING at this points they are AFTER... seems pretty limited, as to what we can do other than another like Alien Isolation, but like a Prequel to that Game Plot or a Sequel that does not Involve Amanda.

I guess another Alternative would be a Short based on the Awakening of Daniels and what HORRORS she discovers upon awakening from Cryo-Sleep.

Thanks Chris. 

For me it does not seem they want to limit the perspective but they had to give some guidelines. It is as if they consider a tv series, kind of Twilight Zone set in the Alien universe.

I hope some filmmakers or artists that contributed to the Ridley Scott's prequels (for they were many) will have time to come up with something. Unfortunately not many of them are US residents. Time frame is too short as well. These two limitations are the most frustrating.

I am very curious to see where this will lead to. I am glad they don't let it die.

 daliens posted this and I read the standards and rules. Sorry, but no. 

5. Submissions cannot contain any offensive language, nudity or otherwise objectionable material, the determination of which is solely at the discretion of Tongal and 20th Century Fox.

In other words, don't submit anything like what made Alien so great over the past few decades.

Good luck with that shit

It seems that they do not understand the alien movies even though there is more than nudity and swearing that is needed for it to work.
