Re: Trackinb Contest
Originally posted by KenRichardsOh Jesus, this board has been rampant with Trackingb. Maybe I'll enter my best screenplay there and see what happens.
To be honest, I had never heard of this competition until a few months ago when I posted a query about which were the best screenplay competitions. I'm still skeptical (based on how new this contest is) but what the heck.

My script DOYLESTOWN was an honorable mention way back in aught 7!

Re: Trackinb Contest
It's always good to have a healthy dose of skepticism, Ken, but I suggest you look at the trackingb contest website and look at all the finalists who signed with reps through the contest. These are not just any reps, either, but many are top reps with proven track records. Short of the Nicholl, I don't know many contests that can boast that many finalists getting management that quickly. Look at the board of judges -- guaranteed reads from those guys if you final.
Having been a finalist, I can also tell you that The Insider sent my script to reputable managers/production companies not on that list as well. I went from having no one willing to read my work to taking several meetings in a week and getting more offers for representation than I knew what to do with...

Re: Trackinb Contest
Getting the new script ready for TrackingB is my next deadline as well. They don't recommend resubmitting screenplays that didn't make the cut in their contest last year.

Working hard to finish a new script in time to submit.

Originally posted by SNAFU View PostThat's problem with most contests: the judges are NOT writing checks to finance the production, so they usually pick artsy-fartsy stuff that will NEVER be filmed, or if it is filmed, it flops (boring, cerebral), and many winners end up with lame careers or switch to publishing or teaching coz they don't know how to write mainstream entertainment (or don't want to, which is fair enough, but don't expect to sell).
