Get representation confirmation and feedback faster than ever before.
Welcome to a fresh year at WriteMovies in 2024, and we’re doing things differently this time. With our new-look Anytime Entry service you can still become a lauded winner of representation and guaranteed pitching to industry, like our many existing winners, but quicker than ever, combined with valuable feedback!
We’re also working with international partners to launch WriteMovies Screenwriters Forum – launching hybrid online and in-person masterclasses and script development sessions and courses. More on this soon!
And with so many winners to pitch following the WGA strike and other industry disruption, plus more industry media news from our founder Dr. Alex Ross, we’re sure of an exciting year ahead…
Anytime Entry – your fast track to a great result!
There’s going to be lots to announce in the coming months, but today we’d like to show you what you get by using our Anytime Entry service. Enter your script at any time at our website for just $45, and you will receive:
- An analysis of the first ten pages of your script, focusing on its key strengths and weaknesses in the key passages that the industry would actually consider before deciding whether to continue.
- A writer evaluation, confirming either that we believe the industry’s analysts would Pass this entry, Consider this entry for representation and pitching (which we will do by entering it in any one of our annual Awards and Prizes this year!)… or that our analyst can immediately Recommend it – guaranteeing you Representation, public promotion and pitching to industry in return for a signed contract to be managed and publicly promoted by us and our partners at TalentScout International Management!
If you’d like a more advanced script report to inform your next steps as a writer, why not enter for a WriteMovies Studio Consulting Report, Development Notes, or any of our services direct from Dr. Alex Ross? You’ll be evaluated for representation, promotion and pitching just the same!
We think this will be a great model for our customers to get prompt confirmation of their project’s potential in the market, and of their own opportunities for representation, from WriteMovies in 2024. And we think you’ll feel the same!
What’s more, it also guarantees you the chance to win any relevant WriteMovies prize or Award that we announce this year – giving you a second shot at representation, promotion and pitching by the end of the year as our view of your entry and the market develops! And even better than that: if you get a ‘Consider’ outcome, you’ll be allowed to submit a new draft of your project to that contest before it closes – giving you every chance to learn from the feedback you got first time around and nail it before the contest winners are decided.
Enter now at WriteMovies.com – see the options in the right sidebar or navigate to the service you’re interested in!

We’re thrilled to see these results – WriteMovies is always dedicated to great storytelling and to opening the door for writers. Taking a closer look at the WriteMovies Academy reviews, here’s what a few of our users had to say…
