About this listen

Gone are the days of Hollywood agents going home each night with a stack of unsolicited screenplays by unknown script writers in the hope of finding their next star screenwriting client. Unsolicited material (your script) just doesn’t get read. Script writing competitions are now the system that provides the reading and analysis formerly conducted by Hollywood agents, producers, and studio development executives. The Hollywood film industry loves screenplay competitions simply because they are an effective filtering system that brings the best writing and scripts the top of the heap. Any screenwriter who wins a major screenplay competition today earns a nice IMDB profile and suddenly becomes visible to Hollywood producers, directors, and studio executives looking for the best movies to produce.

So, two things are obvious:

  1. You need to submit your scripts to the best screenplay competitions.
  2. You need to win (or be a Finalist in the best screenplay competitions).

This audiobook won't teach you the finer points of writing or how to write a screenplay. It's only about one thing: How to win a screenplay competition. If that’s your goal, this is the audiobook for you.

Author Robert McCullough has more than 200 produced credits in film and television and is a Senior Judge at The Los Angeles International Screenplay Awards. From inside the #1-ranked screenplay competition in Hollywood, Bob now delivers the bottom-line keys to winning any screenplay contest!

What a waste of time this book is!

If you know even the basics of screenwriting you will learn nothing new from this book. In fact, some of the 'info' provided is so off, one wonders if the author has ever entered a screenplay contest himself. For instance, he advises on including contact details on your coverpage, blissfully unaware that most contests require anonymous entries. Similarly, he advises writers to include a well-written logline (while giving ZERO examples of such), again unaware that most contests do not provide the means to submit one. I suppose it provides some useful advice for the absolute newbie, but one should only buy this book if one is truly desperate to kill an hour and six minutes.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
