________________________________________________


The Inspired Screenwriting Competition is a new approach to the script contest game with a focus on amplifying bold and unique new voices and taking on disrupting the status quo of the film industry.

We’re looking for feature-length screenplays that stand out, break the mold, and connect with audiences in unforgettable ways.

The Inspired Screenwriting Competition was founded by experienced filmmakers and screenwriters who have had a long history in this business. Frustrated with what felt like a decrease in opportunities for newcomers and unique voices and an increase in the amount of organizations that were happy to take an entry fee and offer nothing in return, we felt it was time to take matters into our own hands.

Our mission is to shake up the industry by changing the kinds of scripts that make it to the screen. We feel that now more than ever, the film business needs to embrace new talent telling authentic stories from unique perspectives.

As writers ourselves, we also hate it when people try to put us in a box. And we don’t want to put you in a box, either. That’s why we don’t have separate genre categories.

When you submit, we’ll be assessing your story on its own terms, rather than through the lens of a specific genre.

WE’RE LOOKING FOR THE STRONGEST VOICES IN
SCREENWRITING.

We believe that it’s only through showing who you are with your writing can you truly reach your audience in a meaningful way.

So, send us your best. Send us your personal. Send us the crazy out-there ideas that could have only come from (insert your name here).

Because, whether it’s a high concept comedy, historical drama, elevated horror or something in between (if anyone has that script, btw, def send it our way), if it came from you, we want to read it.

And when we do find that special script? That script that blows our minds?

WE ARE GONNA WANT TO TELL EVERYBODY.

So, use your voice and shout it from the rooftops because…

We’re listening.

The following terms apply to your purchase of a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access the Content from the Site provided by Company.

1.1. TERMS OF SALE.

1.1.1. Content Description. Company makes every effort to make the Site thorough, accurate, and helpful to Company’s customers such as yourself. Nonetheless, there may be times when certain information contained on the Site may be incorrect, incomplete, or inaccurate, or appear inaccurate because of the browser, hardware, software, or other technology that you use.

1.1.2. Availability and Pricing. Availability of the Content may be limited and may not always be guaranteed. If the Content becomes unavailable for any reason other than as a result of Company’s termination of your right to access the same, Company will attempt to remove such items from the Site in a timely manner but makes no guarantees in this regard. The Content’s price is determined in Company’s sole discretion and is quoted on the Site in U.S. dollars. Company may occasionally make errors in the stated price on the Site or in advertisements. If the Content’s correct price is higher than the listed price, Company will, in its sole discretion, either confirm the correct price with you or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation. In any event, the price applicable to any Content will be the price at the time you complete your purchase thereof.

You need an account in order to purchase Content, or a subscription. When setting up and maintaining your account, you must provide and continue to provide accurate and complete information, including your name and a valid email address.

If you contact us to request access to an account, we will not grant you such access unless you can provide Company with the information that Company needs to prove that you are the owner of that account. In the event of the death of a user, the account of that user will be closed.

You may not share your account login credentials with anyone else. You are responsible for what happens with your account, and Company will not intervene in disputes between users who have shared account login credentials. You must notify Company immediately upon learning that someone else may be using your account without your permission (or if you suspect any other breach of security) by contacting our Support Team. We may request some information from you to confirm that you are indeed the owner of your account.

You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account on the Site and use the Content. If you are younger than 18, you may not create an account, and Company will immediately terminate your account if Company discovers that any account violates these rules.

1.1.6. Payment. Company uses a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill you for the purchase of Content or a subscription. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor, in addition to these Terms. Company is not responsible for any error by the Payment Processor. By choosing to purchase the Content, you agree to pay Company, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for such purchase in accordance with the applicable payment terms and you authorize Company, through the Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment Method”). You agree to make payment using that selected Payment Method. Company reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If Company, through the Payment Processor, does not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due immediately upon demand, or Company may cancel your access to the Content. Completion of a payment transaction is contingent upon: (a) your providing complete transaction and any other information needed, (b) authorization of the payment by your Payment Method, and (c) acceptance of your payment. You may cancel your payment prior to your final submission of it to Company.

Company may cancel a payment or prevent you from initiating future payments for any reason, including, without limitation, the following: (i) if you attempt to use the Site in breach of any applicable law or regulation, including the card network rules or regulations; (ii) if you use the Site in breach of these Terms; (iii) if Company suspects fraudulent, unlawful or improper activity regarding a payment; or (iv) if Company detects, in its sole discretion, that your payments have excessive disputes, high reversal rates or present a relatively high risk of losses.

1.1.7. Subscription Fee. If you have purchased a subscription, the subscription fee will be billed upon commencing your subscription and automatically each month or year thereafter, unless and until you cancel your subscription on or before thirty (30) days prior to the time for your subscription to be automatically billed for the next billing period. If you have selected the monthly billing option, we automatically bill your Payment Method each month on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your subscription. If you have selected the yearly billing option, we automatically bill your Payment Method each year on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your subscription. We reserve the right to change the timing of our billing, in particular, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled. In the event your subscription began on a day not contained in a given month, we may bill your Payment Method on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we deem appropriate. For example, if you started your subscription or became a paying member on March 31st, your next payment date is likely to be April 30th, and your Payment Method would be billed that date. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any purchased subscription will automatically renew for the subscription period until you cancel as set forth herein.
