By Invitation Only

Cut to Black Prize is invitation only. If you would like to be considered, complete a short request form. We keep the field small so every invited script receives a deep, blind read from working producers and analysts.

Immediate Industry Exposure

Your script now gains immediate industry exposure when you enter. Our previous Cut to Black Prize winner has already sold his script, two additional participants have secured sale agreements, and other writers are actively considering offers.

Every new entry will also be added immediately to Call Sheet Media's script database, giving your work the opportunity to be discovered by industry decision-makers while it is still in the judging process.

Request Your Invite

We review requests regularly and will notify you of your status as soon as possible. If invited, you will receive a private submission link and deadlines.

Start your request now and put your best work forward before we reach capacity.
