Want to go Hollywood?
Scriptapalooza Inc. is currently accepting submissions for its 11th annual Scriptapalooza Screenwriting Competition. Script submissions for the competition are read by more than 80 top production companies and literary agencies.
The first-place winner, chosen by Scriptapalooza, receives a $10,000 grand prize. In addition, Scriptapalooza says its staff will promote the semifinalists and finalists for a full year after the winners are announced.
With the participation of production companies such as Disney, Miramax, Big Light, Lawrence Mark and Bender-Spink, among others, Scriptapalooza says it offers what even the largest grand prize could never buy: a guarantee that an “unsolicited” script will be read by leading Hollywood decision-makers. In many cases, the Scriptapalooza scripts are optioned or even bought outright by production companies.
The regular deadline is March 5, with an application fee of $45. Final deadline is April 15, with an application fee of $50.
