There is still time to enter our 2024 Screenwriting Contest – the extended deadline is this Sunday, November 24th!
Don’t regret it later by missing out! We’re serious about selling our winners’ scripts. Just like Edweine, the winners of our 2024 Screenwriting Contest will receive a year of script development worth $3200, representation from TalentScount International Management and pitching of their developed script to the international entertainment industry.
Our results – with up to 50+ Quarter-Finalists, 25+ Semi-Finalists, 3 Winners and 4 Special Prize Winners – show you where your project currently sits in comparison to others. We will show you its potential through our studio-quality tiers of script mentoring and script consultancy, whilst also advising how to remove the obstacle to success, without compromising the things that matter most to you about your script!
The winners of our contests are due to continue being announced over the next few weeks, so stay tuned!
