NOW OPEN: Pre-Submissions with Producer Matching for the Fifth Cannes Screenplay List ✨
Pre-Submissions with Producer Matching Now Open:
This year, we are excited to offer our community an exclusive opportunity to apply to our pre-submissions with producer matching for the Fifth Cannes Screenplay List before the official submissions opening on January 15, 2025.
Applying to the Fifth Cannes Screenplay List Pre-Submissions include:
Application to Wscripted’s Fifth Cannes Screenplay List.
An individual 30-minute session to develop a tailored list of producers based on your project details and comparative titles. We’ll invite your tailored list of producers to discover your project on Wscripted+ during the campaign of the Fifth Cannes Screenplay List.
Guidance on how to promote your project on Wscripted+, along with feedback to enhance your project's “e-coverage,” provided by our team after your individual session.
An extended window to refine your “e-coverage” and a complimentary 4-month coupon to upload your updated drafts to Wscripted+ until the Fifth Cannes Screenplay List’s final submission deadline of March 15.
You can apply to our pre-submissions until January 15. Booking your 1:1 is first come, first served; we suggest applying early to book the first slots of meetings.
Pre-Submissions close on January 14.
Thank you for joining our Office Hours last week!
Thank you for the many of you who attended our Office Hours, where we discussed Wscripted’s evolution, showed a demo of Wscripted+, talked about our Pre-Submissions with Producer Matching for the Fifth Cannes Screenplay List and 2025 Programming! For people not able to join, don’t worry, the session was recorded:
New on Wscripted+: Upload without AI
Wscripted+ has just released its “upload without AI” feature, which gives you the option to upload your project and manually write your “e-coverage” without AI. This feature empowers you to showcase and get your project promoted on the platform without relying on AI. Wscripted+’s "e-coverage" features all the key elements typically found in an industry-standard coverage reviewed by decision-makers.
When uploading your project, you will be able to choose between two options:
"Upload with AI" which generates a detailed story report in just 5 minutes, or
"Upload without AI" which redirects you to the project page, where you can manually write your project’s "e-coverage." You will need to have ready the following materials: logline, short summary, long summary, character breakdown, genre, comparative titles, and themes. NB: Please ensure that you keep the window open during the upload process, as it may take up to 20 seconds to complete. You’ll need to write your project details right after the upload for the project to be featured.
Watch our demo here to see the platform in action.
Other features coming out this month:
Writer’s Page
The Writer’s Page will highlight your biography, IMDb profile, agent or manager contact details, and all projects listed on Wscripted+.
AI Protection Clause
Wscripted’s team is closely following the laws being negotiated to protect copyrighted materials and is building into the technology the option to download your project in PDF format with the most up-to-date AI protection clause to prevent your project from being used to train AI systems or uploaded into unsafe or non-compliant systems that may infringe on your copyright.
What is Wscripted+: Wscripted+ is setting a new standard to power the review, curation and recommendation of scripts & books, while protecting copyright. Wscripted+ breaks down key challenges like time constraints and industry biases, which maintain entry barriers and lead to talents being overlooked, by allowing professionals in film, TV, and publishing to review submissions faster with project’s e-coverage and source great writers beyond network with tailored recommendations based on their creative interest.
