Welcome to the 11th Annual Scriptapalooza Screenplay Competition

We are just as dedicated and enthusiastic to promote writers through our competition now as we were 11 years ago. Our number one priority has always been the writer, from choosing our judges to creating opportunities for writers. We continue to surround ourselves with reputable and successful companies, including the many production companies, literary agents and managers who read all the entered scripts.

- First place prize is $10,000
- over 90 producers, managers and agents read all the entered scripts
- supported by The Writers Guild of America west
- supported by The Writers Guild of Canada

"Despite its frivolous name, Scriptapalooza is the best screenwriting competition I know."
-Robert McKee, Author of STORY
