In addition to the $40,000 in cash and prizes, all of our top 20 feature writers receive a seat in the week-long Champion Lab with Jim Mercurio. This is an opportunity to network with fellow entrants in a thought-provoking, dynamic master class workshop guaranteed to push your creative boundaries.

As one of last year's participants said: ''think of [this workshop] as the Rosetta Stone of screenwriting. Even to a seasoned writer, this class will allow new gears in their brain to turn.''

Also, writers who enter more than three features are entered into a random drawing for a seat in the week-long Champion Lab.
