NOW, screenplay award winners will receive a DISTRIBUTION AWARD! Winning a distribution award will help you raise the funding needed to produce your screenplay into a feature film. Once investors know you have a distribution deal in place it will make it easier to obtain the funding you need to fulfill your dream!
