The 18th
Annual Screenwriting Challenge is a competition open to writers
around the world. There are 3 rounds of competition. In the 1st Round kicking
off this Friday, March 19th, writers are placed
randomly in groups and are assigned a genre, subject, and character
assignment. Writers have 8 days to write an original short
screenplay no longer than 12 pages. The judges choose a top 5
in each group to advance to the 2nd Round where writers receive new
assignments, only this time they have just 3 days to write an 8
page (maximum) short screenplay. Judges choose a top 3 in
each group from the 2nd Round to advance to the 3rd and final round
of the competition where writers are challenged to write a 5 page
(maximum) screenplay in just 24 hours. Feedback from the
judges is provided for every submission and there are thousands in cash and prizes for the winners.
In addition, we will be donating two dollars from each entry to
global charities dealing with some of the most critical
issues affecting our world, and writers choose where that donation
goes. Learn more about the competition, register, and read winning
screenplays from previous competitions at the link below. Good
luck and stay safe writers!
