WeScreenplay strongly believes that the best way for writers to grow is through feedback, which is why WeScreenplay provides free, written feedback with every single competition entry. We are glad to hear from so many of you how helpful the notes were! We’re always excited to see WeScreenplay writers improving their craft.

We are thrilled to advance entries to the Finalist round for another read. A huge congratulations to every writer advancing.
We also want to acknowledge all of the strong scripts that did not advance. If your script is not on this list, it does not at all mean that our judges didn’t enjoy the read – in fact, we’re confident some of the scripts not advancing will bring their writers success in the very near future. Thank you for entering your script and as always — keep writing.
