Welcome to Creative Screenwriting's bi-annual screenplay competition. The AAA Contest is looking for the best and most talented writers from around the world. If you have written a great screenplay, please allow us to bring your work to the attention of the industry.

Our Grand Prize winner will receive $5,000 and agency/production company consideration, and our two runners-up will receive $1,000 apiece plus agency/production company consideration. We'll also send loglines and synopses for the top ten scripts to more than 350 agents, managers, and development executives who have requested them. Submit your best work in any genre.


Screenwriting contests are a great way to get your foot in the door and more importantly give you a barometer for where your work ranks among your peers.
