Objective

This isn't your typical table read.

The Grand Prize Winner receives a pass to pitch their project at the American Film Market® — to producers, agents, and executives who can move the needle on a career.

Top entries are considered for the ISA Development Slate, where our team champions your script to literary representatives and industry executives from companies like CAA, ICM, Sony, Netflix, Amazon MGM Studios, Lucky Chap, and more.

It all begins with a professionally directed live staged reading with seasoned actors that transforms your screenplay into a presentation-ready industry asset.

Past Table Read winners have been staffed and their projects have been optioned, premiered at Cannes and been nominated for Oscars among other successes. Show More
