ScreenCraft Animation Screenwriting Competition
Final Deadline: 07/31/2023
Perhaps no other medium of entertainment liberates the writer’s imagination more than animation. From wildly experimental 2D animation, to photo-realistic 3D animation, and everything in between, the medium of animation can allow for many kinds of inventive, visual storytelling. Whether you’re writing an animated family feature, a serious animated series for adults, or a kids TV show, we’re honoring three categories in this annual competition!User Feedback: 1 Comment (Post a comment of your own)
