TITAN Screenwriting Contest

Announcing the 2023 TITAN Awards Finalists

After the recent semi-final round competition, Industrial Scripts is delighted to announce the Finalists of The 2023 TITAN Screenwriting Contest.

The full list of finalists is below.

Even in the contest’s third 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 Finals, and a sincere message to those who didn’t, that this is by no means the final word on their project. Indeed, with the awards also due to announce its “Wildcard” and “Pearl” awards, there may yet be good news for some of the semi-finalists who didn’t make it to the Final round.

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.

I simply replaced the nail with a spike, and went on writing.”

Stephen King
