Description

The Slamdance Screenplay Competition is dedicated to discovering and supporting emerging writing talent. We welcome screenplays in every genre, on any topic, from anywhere in the world. A unique feature of the competition is providing constructive feedback for every entrant. In addition to this, we also offer a more intensive coverage service for a supplementary fee. Now in our nineteenth year, we have a history of highlighting talented, independent screenwriters and introducing them to the entertainment industry.

“I had been to Park City a few times, but I was unpre- pared for the incredible re- ception and experience of being a filmmaker with a film at Slamdance. The ca- maraderie and truly inde- pendent spirit of the festival was heartening. I genuinely feel like part of the family now.” — Andrew Putschoegl, director of HELLO CALLER "Premiering my first feature at Slamdance was an experience that beyond exceeded my expectations. A festival that definitely puts its money where its mouth is.

— Nicole Teeny, director, BIBLE QUIZ (Grand Jury Award Winner for Documentary Feature at Slamdance 2013) “We have so much appreciation and admiration for Slamdance! As a festival, they live in their own romantic era and we felt that vibe so intensely. We are romantics as well and we believe that this is a place of absolute love and devotion for filmmaking, run by amazing filmmakers with unique taste, enthusiasm and fierce independent spirits.

The object of Slamdance’s online Coverage Service is to provide you with extensive constructive criticism about your work. The Coverage Service includes a brief plot synopsis and then offers an in-depth analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of your screenplay. The Coverage Service also offers the screenwriter some recommendation as to what "the next step" could be with their screenplay and writing. This may address media, films and screenplays, production companies and agencies the writer should be aware of, as well as any words of wisdom from one of our Readers.

We are gearing up to bring you another season of Slamdance On The Road. We've expanded 2014's program to include dates in New York City, Los Angeles, Austin, Detroit, Kalamazoo, Winchester, Baltimore, and a special Canadian date in Vancouver BC! Programs will be announced by city in the coming weeks, and we have several unique lineups in the works that include festival winners and audience favorites, all with our unique and anarchic take on independent cinema.
