There is no cost to enter, but time is limited, so submit your entry today. This is your opportunity to submit your best work and perhaps see your dream realized on The Big Screen. The members (Producers & Executive Producers) of our website will decide the final overall winner.

Here’s how the submission process works:

Round One:

Submit the Title of your work and a Logline/Synopsis of your story (not to exceed one page in length) along with your name, e-mail address, contact information and Bio by January 31st, 2006. Submissions are being accepted by e-mail only at feedback@thepeoplesmovie.com. If we believe your work has potential to fit within the mold of The People’s Movie interactive and collaborative process, we will ask you to send us a 5-10 page treatment of your work.

Round Two:

Selected individuals must submit their 5-10 page treatment for consideration by February 10th, 2006. Some of the treatments may or may not be placed up for public viewing at our website, which may include some preliminary voting by our members. B.Sting Entertainment will determine the top finalists. Each finalist will be asked to submit his or her completed screenplay by February 28, 2006.

Round Three:

Each finalist will be contacted in advance of the final vote to discuss any legal concerns and to determine compensation for the Assignment of All Rights should their screenplay be selected as the final overall winner. An agreement must be made between both parties (BSE & Each Finalist) in advance of the final vote. Only those finalists who have reached an agreement will be placed up for final vote, which will begin on March 20th, 2006. This final vote will be mad
