The 2014 3 Minute Script Competition is now receiving submissions. (final deadline 20 December)
This year the UK Film Festival is teaming up with Irresistible Films and Creative Director Paul Maynard, who is helping to judge our 3 Minute Script Competition.
The Prize – The winning script will receive best short script laurels and be considered for co-production by Irresistible Films and the UK Film Festival. It is worth noting that as outlined above the 2012 winning script MIKE by AJ Riley went into production and has recently won best short film at the Berlin Film Festival. We are excited to announce that the 2013 winning script THE RECKONING by Andrea Allen is now in pre-production. The top 3 Scripts will be read by Susie Wright for Channel 4′s Creative Diversity. The very best film or films from the festival (as happened last year) may be considered for potential inclusion in an episode of Channel 4’s Shooting Gallery.
Submission please send your entry by post or by email. The postal submissions should contain a cheque made payable to the UK Film Festival for the £20 admin fee and should be sent to:
