GRAND PRIZE:
real actors WILL perform your screenplay!
5 steps to GET your screenplay ready for filming!
WHY DO a 'Table Read'?
1. Read, read and re-read. Each time ask yourself: “What else can I cut without compromising the story?”
Over 50,000 screenplays are written each year, and only a handful get produced, which means you need to make sure yours is at the top of it's game. A 'Table Read' or 'Read-through' is often a surprisingly powerful tool for identifying problem areas in the script.
2. Have other people read the script. If they can’t find anything wrong with it, then you need to find new trusted readers.
3. Have a TABLE READ.
If something sounds like crap, then fix it fast!

How do I qualify?
We've created a contest that simulates the 'Producer's Screening Process'. It all starts with the logline! Frequently this is your one and only chance to get a producer to even read your script, so it better be good! Submit your logline and screenplay on the SUBMIT NOW page to get the process moving.
I'm not good at Loglines
Then read on, because like all things, you CAN get better at writing a logline, you just need some solid advice on how: GOOD ADVICE HERE!
4. After the read, ask if anyone has feedback, good or bad. Take what works, ignore the rest.
5. Try to make every word on the page push the story forward.
