  • Austin 2015

    An update email just hit my mailbox stating that there were 8,627 entries this year. They've begun sending notification letters via USPS and emails should go out the beginning of next week. Second-rounder and semi-finalist results should be available on the Austin website by 9/16.

      I thought it was about time to start sweating out those Austin calls.

                I haven't seen anything from anyone who has recieved any notification on the screenplay contest. Short films yes, screenplays - nothing here or on Twitter.

                  Just saw a tweet that a writer had been notified of making it to the second-round.

                    Looks like my low expectations should stay that way. Well, crud.

                      Going through Twitter and I haven't found too many writers saying anything about screenplay notifications other than a few who second rounded. Maybe it's taking longer than usual?

                        Just got my Second Rounder letter... A bit disappointed but there's always next year.

                        Good luck to the rest of you guys.

                            Worth noting that's for a short. I just got my second round e-mail tonight. Back to work!

                              Another year, another pass. Though worth noting, two of the scripts I submitted were previous quarters in Zoetrope, final draft, and fresh voices. It's the subjective nature of the biz.
