Now in its 16th year, the Script Pipeline Screenwriting Competition seeks talented writers and exceptional screenplays to connect with production companies, agencies, and managers. Launched in 2003 as part of the early wave of screenwriting contests, Script Pipeline continues to cultivate relationships with the industry’s top executives, focused specifically on finding writers representation, supporting diverse voices, championing marketable, unique storytelling, and pushing more original projects into production.
The company’s distinctive long-term facilitation process helps contest alumni find elite representation and gain crucial introductions to Hollywood, with $6 million in screenplays and pilots sold by competition finalists and “Recommend” writers since 2010 alone. Last year, close to 5,000 screenplays were entered in the Screenwriting Competition, making Script Pipeline one of the leading companies reviewing unproduced material.
