I will definitely be submitting my feature and pilot projects to your competition. Bluecat staff provide helpful feedback that actually helps to move your projects forward!!
I have placed in other contests but never in several years of submitting to Bluecat. The feedback has always seemed reasonable. I’m sure you all know that it’s extremely rare for an original script to be made into a commercial film, even those that win contests. But it’s not impossible, and few of us are going to quit our day jobs. Bluecat has always been one of the highest rated contests, so as long as I can spare the money I’ll enter.
Even if you don’t win, the feedbacks are great! BlueCat has really good quality readers.
