After the announcement of the quarter-finalists of the competition on the 18th September 2022, Industrial Scripts is delighted, today, to announce the Semi-Finalists of The 2022 TITAN Screenwriting Contest.
The full list of qualifiers is below.
Even in the contest’s second year, the situation was highly competitive and there were a great many writers and projects that impressed.
So it’s a big congratulations to those who made the Semi-Finals, and a sincere message to those who didn’t, that this is by no means the final word on their project.
To all entrants, it’s worth recalling an attitude – nay, the only attitude – which gets writers ahead in any creative arena:
“By the time I was fourteen, the nail in my wall would no longer support the weight of the rejection slips impaled upon it.
Stephen King
I simply replaced the nail with a spike, and went on writing.”
(350m+ book copies sold)
The TITAN Awards is a screenwriting contest whereby material competes against its own kind for as long as possible over the course of a contest cycle.
