  • Any good short screenwriting contests?

    Are there any good short screenwriting contests?

    I want to direct my own short, that was the point of writing it. So I don't want any contest where the winning short gets produced. (Okay the winning script can be produced, but I the writer gets to direct it.)

    I found American Gem, but they want a percentage of profits earned if the script wins and get produced somewhere down the road. I'm not interested in signing up with those rules.

    Thanks.

    There used to be a contest in New Mexico or somewhere in which the top 5 scripts were all made ... and the writer had the option of directing it themselves. I forget the name of the contest.

    There is a comprehensive list of short script contests at moviebytes.com

      It was called the Digifest Southwest contest. Before that it was called the Flicks on 66 Film Festival. Now I think it's the Duke City Shootout. Try here: www.EARSXXI.com
