For You TV and its creative partners are now accepting submissions for feature film screenplays, shorts, manuscripts, documentaries and TV scripts in all genres. There’s an audience for every genre and every writer has a voice. And because it is extremely hard to have a voice in Hollywood, ALL SUBMISSIONS ARE HEARD! Selected scripts will be optioned, produced and packaged from development to production by experienced Network Producers and Development Executives. Writers of non-selected scripts will be referred to former screenplay contest judge and current coverage writer for Austin Film Festival, GERALD HANKS.

Our focus is to be a voice for underrepresented writers and acquire never before seen projects for networks and streaming services in need of material. And when making sure voices are heard, we are also emerging into new digital technologies surrounding audience interaction. Being confronted by different narratives and values helps us expand the conception we have about the stories the public is drawn to.

ALL underrepresented writers, especially the underrepresented writers in marginalized communities, have a voice. We all have stories that are different from our own, but the historic lack of marginalized stories in popular culture deal with the added pressure that their individual story comes to inherently represent the whole of their community.

For You TV wants your diverse stories and voices to be heard. It’s time to claim your unique voice.

All script submissions should refer to our Rules and Guidelines before submitting. And because your creativity is valuable, always register your script with the Copyright Office, and/or register with the WGA, as well.

Selected submissions will be optioned, produced and packaged from development to production by experienced Network Producers and Development Executives. Writers of non-selected scripts will be referred to former screenplay contest judge and current coverage writer for Austin Film Festival, GERALD HANKS.

All submissions must adhere to For You TV’s Rules & Guidelines. Each submission is $35.00. Yes, a small fee for the reading of tons of stories, administration, production costs and other industry fees and expenses when assessing your script. Ultimately, writers need producers and production companies to fund their work. If you were referred by GERALD HANKS, please label on your script cover page or treatment: GERALD HANKS REFERRED.
