]]>CSW Seeks Scriptshttp://carnegiescreenwriters.squarespace.com/news-and-events/2011/4/5/csw-seeks-scripts.html[CSW]2011-04-05T20:57:22Z2011-04-05T20:57:22ZIn order to promote area screenwriters and their scripts, Carnegie Screenwriters (CSW), is looking for screenplays. The Pittsburgh area is fortunate to be rich in Hollywood connections. Some of the visiting industry professionals have recently expressed an interest in exploring quality material originating from their hometown.

The CSW idea is simple – compile a list of feature length scripts from area writers that have either reached the quarter-finals or better of well regarded screenwriting competitions, or have been optioned by a production company, thereby indicating that the screenplay has achieved a degree of professional recognition.

The next step is to provide the log line (TV Guide description) of these scripts to industry executives. If subsequently interested, a complete script will be provided.

CSW hopes to work with, among others, Steeltown Entertainment, Women in Film and Media, Pittsburgh Filmmakers, the Pittsburgh Film Office, etc., and leverage the various connections that these local organizations enjoy.

The deadline for submissions is June 15, 2011. More information is available at www.carnegiescreenwriters.com, via Carnegie Screenwriters’ Facebook page, or by contacting Bob Scott, President of CSW, who can be reached at rhscott69@aol.com.
