What Do Previous Entrants Say About Finish Line?

Amanda Samaroo, Semi-finalist

“I have had feedback from contests and highly paid professionals. Nothing was as in-depth as the feedback from Finish Line. They helped me rewrite my script with valuable insight every round and I watched my script grow into the best version of itself. Really can’t say enough. Well worth the entry fee.”

Charles Pieper, Semi-finalist

“This is an excellent screenplay competition indeed. The fact that they give notes and then allow you to submit new drafts is excellent. The notes they gave my script helped it out immensely and led to it being a semi-finalist!”

William Speruzzi

“The Finish Line Script Competition is unique in that it pushes you towards a better script. The feedback on my script was detailed and professional. There's no doubt that my resubmitted draft improved because of it. Good communication also. It would benefit any screenwriter to seriously take a look at entering this competition.”

DD Lippman

“Generous respectful feedback shows a professional read my script with care. Guidance will be followed as the reader suggests -- to the extent I see value-added --
which in my case is totally! Writing IS about rewriting.”

Kevin Kraft, Semi-finalist

“Amazing. The notes I received were priceless and helped change my screenplay for the better with a night and day difference. Highly recommend everyone enter this competition!”

Sally Pitts

“I chose to get feedback and then resubmit. The notes were extensive, constructive and very helpful. The chance to resubmit is a really great idea - awesome value for money. All my correspondence with the festival was professional and quick. Such a great comp to be a part of. I will definitely enter a new project next year! “

Nick Sennott, Semi-finalist

“This competition was a wonderful writing experience. The readers really invested themselves in the story looking far beyond all the structural "writing cliches" of Hollywood textbooks - enabling me to bring a left-of-center idea to life rather than telling me "No, you can't do that!!" like so many other readers. I was close to giving it all up but now I am more inspired to see what can be achieved on the page. I trust their judgment.”

Courtney Froemming

“Finish Line offers great exposure. The contest is also set up to recognize and encourage writers in the midst of honing their script. The quality of the feedback was detailed and has helped in other competitions. I highly suggest entering your work.”
