Feature Film Screenplay Contest

 Picture
When you submit your finished screenplay to us, you have our guarantee that your material will be read page-by-page, word-for-word by seasoned professionals knowledgeable in both Hollywood's major studio and independent script development standards and practices. Your screenplay will never be assigned to an unpaid, inexperienced amateur or to unpaid interns.

When you enter your script, you have a 100% guarantee that the analysis we deliver to you will be completely original and will be based upon an objective consideration of the ten primary elements of a professional screenplay.  We may make suggestions for the improvement of your work. Any suggestions offered have only one purpose: to support your success as a screenwriter.

This contest is fantastic! The communication is excellent and I appreciate the notes on my script. They were to the point and extremely helpful. I submitted my short film script and won the March 2021 competition. It is an honor and I am very pleased with every aspect of this contest.   ~~Randy Levine, Atlanta
 
I could tell that the reviewer actually read my script in detail by the feedback I received.  They had helpful critiques which helps me be able to apply suggestions sooner. Anyway, I love this screenplay contest. ~~Donna Berkey, Seattle

​If you want honest "feedback' this is where to get it. The Santa Barbara contest eclipses all the other contests with their feedback, and  has set a new and better standard.
