“Unlocking the Secrets: Transform Your Screenplay into a Gripping Novel with Expert Joe Cornet!”
SYS’s Six Figure Screenplay Contest is open for submissions. Just go to www.sellingyourscreenplay.com/contest. Our preliminary deadline is February 28th, so if your script is ready, definitely submit now to save some money. We’re looking for low-budget shorts and features. I’m defining low-budget as less than six figures, in other words, less than one million U.S. dollars. We’ve got lots of industry judges reading scripts in the later rounds. We’re giving away a thousand dollars cash prize to our grand prize winner, along with a bunch of other prizes to bring exposure to the top screenplays. We have a short screenplay category as well. That’s 30 pages or less, so if you have a low-budget short script, definitely consider submitting that. Also, I’ve got a number of industry judge producers who are specifically looking for short scripts, so hopefully we can find a home for some of those. If you want to submit to the contest or just learn more about it or see who are some of our industry judges, just go to www.sellingyourscreenplay.com/contest.
