Testimonials

"We're going into production on "Tongue Tied" in less than a month. We already have a distribution offer on the table. Just wanted to say thanks again. Philly ScreenplayFest helped "Tongue Tied" BIG time!" --Nathan S. Jones, “Tongue Tied” (2011 ScriptFest Participant with Script Coverage) - "You guys were so helpful with commercial agencies, that I ended up signing with the wonderful Joan Messinger at Pinnacle. ‘Seriously Jerry? You got a commercial agent from zero-to-signing in 5 weeks? Wow, that was fast!’ Yessir, and that’s why you are all so awesome.” –Jerry terHorst, “Terry Putlett: Super Janitor!” (2011 Script Contest Participant) - “Someone from Sicily wants to fund “Angel’s Redencion” if my director will shoot in Sicily! They got the script off of the SPF (ScreenplayFest) site! I loaded it last year. Wild! The script is perfect now. The director via Rommolo Bioni is pursuing Antonio Banderas…weird life. My director and the funder will work with the Film Commission in Sicily to hopefully solidify details. I also have an entertainment attorney now. Fingers crossed that this comes through! I do love you guys, thanks. There are lingering benefits to uploading scripts! I love the way you guys (SPF) understand that people get busy and disappear for a bit, whereas TriggerStreet drops rank when writers are not active for a bit. SPF HAS A NICER BUNCH ALSO.” –Samantha Grant, “Angel’s Redencion” (2012 ScriptFest Participant) - “My stories are listed on a few other sites, but NONE are as insightful, helpful as ScreenplayFest, especially with comments and criticism about every aspect of my scripts, whether grammar, format, subtext,typos, proofing, loglines. I mean, who needs USC or NYU film school when I have Screenplayfest as my coach??? It really means a lot to me. Great work.” – Frank Vespe (2012 ScreenplayFest Contestant) - “I truly enjoyed the experience Screenplay Fest had to offer. It provided exposure to a fostering community of fellow writers and film fans that added fuel to my creative tank. As of right now, I’m running on full for my current and future projects! Feel free to contact me at anytime. Thank you for your time and for hosting these types of opportunities.” – David Ebeltoft, “You Were Once Called Queen City” (2008 ScriptFest Winner) His screenplay is now going into production with Addison Timlin as the lead. - “Just wanted to drop a quick message saying thanks for throwing this contest. Ever since I registered I’ve had access to dozens of great screenplays. I log on every few hours, I’m making lots of new writer-friends, building connections with people, and I’m reading one screenplay a day. It’s a great feeling reading a fellow undiscovered writers’ work. Makes you marvel at how much talent is out there being untapped. This is a great contest you have and I’m glad I got to be a part of it. Have a lovely day. Cheers.” – Brian Moniz (2012 ScreenplayFest Contestant “Russian Cross”)
