What makes Scriptapalooza unique in the competition arena is the quality and support it gives its winners and runners-up. For a full year Scriptapalooza continues to work for these writers long after the prize money and software has been given, this includes arranging meetings, phone calls, and pushing all 13 scripts. The priority is to get the writers recognition and their script read by production companies and literary representatives. Sometimes a script is requested 6 months after Scriptapalooza announces its winners. That is the Scriptapalooza difference. (If you are new to screenwriting competitions, click here to read an introduction).

"Prize money alone doesn't start a career, having your winning script read by Scriptapalooza's participating production companies can." This is the opening statement of Scriptapalooza, which is a unique entity among writing competitions. Started in 1998, it has proven to be one of the best new entries on the competition scene.

Scriptapalooza's main objective is and always will be to reach the untapped well of genuine screenwriting talent that hasn't been able to get their "foot in the door." Whether it was due to lack of contacts or not being related to the "right people," Scriptapalooza can help you reach the next level: Being paid to be a writer!
