Crime Software
Raves from the press…
“Blockbuster is all that it is advertised to be, a virtual screenwriting school,
and a great one at that.”
– Skip Press, The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Screenwriting
The problem we're solving for
The battle against crime is the never-ending war in the modern city. Crime is fast, loud, and hip. The cat-and-mouse struggle between those committing crimes and the cops who fight them will always fascinate the worldwide audience.
The Crime genre is quite different from the Detective form, because it isn’t about uncovering crime. It’s either about committing it or fighting it. Some crime stories get inside the criminal organization and the criminal mind. Others take the point of view of the cop, the warrior in a blue uniform who has to fight those who make their own laws.
The Solution:
