SCREENWRITING COMPETITION - 2010 SERIES

The 2010 Screenplay Competition Series is made up of an exciting chain of competitions.

It’s for screenwriters interested in receiving recognition for their work, free coverage from Scriptxray.com ($125 value), and even potential connection with independent producers.

Participants

All participating screenwriters will receive a complimentary xONE coverage service, which consists of a single page overview of the work submitted ($39 value). The xONE includes a short section dedicated to synopsis, another for comments, and a small version of the xGrid.

It’s yours free when you submit your screenplay!

Winners

Most screenwriters are really good in one area of screenwriting — whether it’s character development, theme work, visualization, or dialogue. So it’s time to create a competition where screenwriters with talent in one area, but not necessarily another, can win and become recognized for their talent.

You don’t have to be the best at everything — in fact, producers are looking to hire two different writers more often than not these days, because they know they can get awesome character work from one and fast-paced structure from another.

Prizes

Prizes will vary from from month to month, but you can look forward to seeing the following with every competition …

Recognition from Scriptxray.com

We’ll tell our network of over 3,000 producers, directors, and writers about your work and your talent as a screenwriter, announce your achievement on the blog, and create your very own page under the winners section so you can give your friends a link to your achievement on Scriptxray.com.

Free Coverage Service ($125)

We’ll evaluate your submission and provide Scriptxray.com’s full coverage service for free — that includes a synopsis, comments section, xGrid, and top sheet.

With this coverage, you’ll discover where your work needs improvement (if any), how to go about improving it, and what your talents are as a writer.

Coverage can be a great tool both for improving your work and shopping your work around with producers — when a producer sees that we recommend your work, they’re more likely to consider it.

Connection to Independent Producers

And finally, we’ll send your pitch and finished coverage to our contacts — mostly consisting of independent producers … the people that make movies, not decisions.

Submissions … Accepting Tomorrow

We’ll be starting the screenplay competition series with a small scale competition starting … tomorrow!
