Deadline for entry to LaunchPad Pilots Competition Thu (30)

Screen Shot 2015-04-29 at 5.15.23 PMScreenCraft is happy to recommend the 2015 Launch Pad Pilots Competition.

Introducing our 2015 Launch Pad

Pilots Competition. Our competition is dedicated to giving writers the exposure they need to launch professional Hollywood careers. That’s why in just 18 months we have helped 64 writers land representation with top agents and managers, 9 writers get staffed on hit TV shows, and 27 writers set up projects resulting in 3 bidding wars. This is what sets us apart from any other competition out there. Let us take you from the living room to the writers’ room!

Regular Deadline is April 30th. Enter Today!

Prizes3 Grand Prize Winners (overall, drama, comedy) will be flown to Los Angeles for an action-packed round of meetings with top agents, managers and producers and be our guest of honor at our Exclusive Tracking Board event, where you will meet all of this year’s judges and Tracking Board Alumni.

JudgesEvery major agency, management and production company has judged our competitions and this year is without exception. Our 2015 featured judges include CAA, UTA, Paradigm, Benderspink, Energy Entertainment, Circle of Confusion, Verve, Kaplan/Perrone, 3 Arts Entertainment and many more.

Over the last five years our judges have represented:

340 projects from the Hit List

276 projects from the Young & Hungry List

213 projects from the Black List

54 projects from the Blood List

New 2015 Add-On Programs

We’re offering entrants an opportunity to be a part of several great add-ons:

Guaranteed Signing

Hot boutique management company Heroes and Villains and manager Henry Huang will sign at least one writer from this year’s competition. His clients have staffed on shows such as Jane the Virgin, Graceland, 12 Monkeys, Legends, Helix, Beauty and the Beast, Rogue, and Reign.

Mentorship Program

Our very own Launch Pad alumni and now TV staff writers Bisanne Masoud, Talia Gonzalez and Michael Perri will head our first ever mentorship program. The program will focus on three elements – getting you and your script ready, tips and strategies on pitching and choosing your next project, and insight on how to navigate a newly minted career in Hollywood. Don’t just learn from those who have done it. Learn from those who got their start from the Launch Pad.
