We’re really pleased to announce the first winner from our Spring 2018 Contest – and the first winner for our newest category, the Best Video Game Script! Video games are a huge and growing market, and often cost as much as the biggest movies to make. Their scope and scriptwriting are often as intricate as the best movie scripts, and on a much bigger scale. We wanted to offer a new prize for video game scripts to reward writers who can see the potential of that market for writers and who can stake a claim to it.
We’ve enjoyed reading all of the work that was submitted, so a big thank-you to everyone who entered. Unfortunately, only one script could take away this first prize. So, in the category of Best Video Game Script, the winner is:
BIG BALLS aka FUTUREBALL
By
Richard Guimond!
(Based on a Concept by Alan Bright)
Congratulations to Richard on this success! For winning Best Video Game Script, Richard now receives a copy of our Confidential Studio Manual, an essential read for any writer who wants to get an insider’s perspective on what happens to a script trying to get attention in the international industry. Richard also wins exclusive previews of our Virtual Film School videos and resources – a place where you can take your screenwriting and production skills to the next level, and start your journey to the top – which will be publicly launched soon!
