2,500+ scripts came through our doors. The community voted, and 10 finalists made the cut. Now it's time for the judges to weigh in.
Our judging panel is currently reading through the 10 semifinalists, diving deep into structure, dialogue, voice, and the intangible thing that makes a script sing on the page. By October 26, they'll have narrowed it down to 3 finalists.
And here's the part that matters: the final vote comes back to you. You helped narrow it to 10. You get to choose which 3 scripts deserve the spotlight and the recognition and opportunity that comes with it.
Mark your calendars. October 26 is when you decide.
