Hello all,
I'm new to this board as I sort of set aside my screenplay once it got the boot from the first cut. But I'm starting to come back to it. I read something about how the writer of Finding Forrester sold his script. Basically, he entered in all the "big" contests as he called it. I don't know what the "big" contests are (besides this one and some of you may disagree with that as well) but as I'm dusting off my screenplay and starting the tortous task of editing and restructuring, I'm just wondering if anyone could provide a list of other contests and their deadline dates? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm working on that problem myself. Do a search on Altavista.
Then go here.. www.moviebytes.com

It's a good site. It has a lot of listings and it's done by deadline.

Many of the big contests dates just passed. But yes, go to moviebytes.com and check some of them out. Here's my take on some of the biggies:

Nicholl
Austin
Chesterfield
Scriptapalooza
Disney Fellowship(I think this one is next month, and it's free, so definately enter)

Good luck
