Each script is read in its entirety and scored by each reader for strength of plot, originality, writing proficiency, ability to be produced on a budget of less than $10K, ability to be successfully read, performed, and understood by a live audience, and other values.

Five to seven screenplays will be featured at the competition on Friday, September 18, 2020 in which the screenwriters must attend, and cast a live reading of the script from a bank of actors and directors.
