Objective
The PAGE Awards competition was established in the fall of 2003 by an alliance of Hollywood producers, agents, and development execs. Our goal: to discover the most exciting new scripts by up-and-coming writers from across the country and around the world. And due to the success of our winning writers, the PAGE Awards competition has become one of the most important sources for new screenwriting talent within the Hollywood community and worldwide.
One of the most frustrating things about so many screenwriting contests - both for the writers and for the judges - is that scripts of different genres are in competition with each other. But how can you compare a comedy to an action script? How do you rank a family film against a thriller? Moreover, why is it that most contests only reward the screenwriter who writes a powerful drama, while many of the most successful movies made in Hollywood are comedies, thrillers, action flicks and family films?
In order to address this problem, and to encourage a wide variety of screenwriting talent, each year the PAGE judges present a total of 31 Awards to new screenwriters in ten different genre categories:
Action/Adventure
Comedy
Drama
Family Film
Historical Film
Science Fiction
Thriller/Horror
Short Film Scripts
TV Drama Pilots
TV Comedy Pilots
This year's winning writers will receive a total of over $50,000 in cash and prizes, plus extensive industry exposure for their winning scripts! Most importantly, the PAGE Awards contest is judged entirely by working professionals in the film and television industry, so all contestants have the opportunity to get their scripts into the hands of Hollywood professionals currently in search of new talent.

PAGE Award Winners in the News
Now in its fourth year, the PAGE International Screenwriting Awards competition has rapidly become one of the most important sources for new screenwriting talent within the Hollywood community and worldwide. Since receiving their awards, many of the contest’s winning screenwriters have landed writing assignments, secured representation, and signed option agreements on their winning scripts, and several PAGE Award winners now have movies in various stages of production and release.
Among the most recent PAGE success stories:
The 2004 Gold Prize-winning short ABSOLUTE ZERO, by Aussie screenwriter Alan Woodruff, has completed production and is currently on the international film festival circuit. The movie recently won the jury prize for Best Short Film at the Trimedia Festival (USA), and it will also be screened this year at Rebelfest (Canada), Golden Lion (Africa), the Chennai Film Festival (India), and the Durango Film Festival (USA).
A few weeks after the 2006 PAGE Awards were announced, Silver Prize-winning TV writer Davah Avena was signed by the Kaplan, Stahler, Gumer, Braun Agency.
After a flurry of interest, Lisa Yoffee has optioned her 2006 Gold Prize-winning family film JEKYLL & HEIDI to L.A. producer Bob Abramoff.
Point Zero Pictures has just optioned the dark comedy spec KEEPSAKE by 2005 Bronze Prize winner Drina Connors Kay. Kay was also recently hired by Point Zero to write a feature based on an idea by producer/director Miklos Philips.
2004 Gold Prize winner Jennifer Vandever has optioned the film rights to her novel THE BRONTE PROJECT to New York-based Orchard Pictures. The book was originally published by Random House and Three Rivers Press, and is now on sale at Amazon.com. Nisha Ganatra is attached to direct the film.
The comedy feature JUPITER LANDING, by 2006 Bronze Prize winner Zack Van Eyck, is now available on DVD through Netflix, as well as at: www.jupiterlandingthemovie.com. Van Eyck’s new comedy script THE EIGHTH HOUSE is slated for production this summer in Salt Lake City, produced by Chad Russey. And Van Eyck also just sold his fifth short film script, THE MESSENGER, to producer Gil Pinon. Pinon is scheduled to shoot the movie this spring in southern Germany.
