Question 1

What is the GOLDEN LIST?

Accepted Answer

Each July, we unveil our top 30 scripts in the competition with a list called the GOLDEN LIST. This list is shared with many of our partners (over 60 production companies and agencies) and industry professionals such as creative executives, producers, and directors, who can access more information about the scripts and request them. However, access to the scripts is limited and requires the writer's permission for anyone outside of our partners and direct contacts.

Question 2

How does one qualify for the GOLDEN LIST?

Accepted Answer

To be considered for the GOLDEN LIST, one must simply submit to our competition.(https://goldenscript.net/submit/) If their script wins or is nominated and falls within the top 30, it will be included on the list.

Question 3

How is the list divided?

Accepted Answer

We include our best 15 features, 9 TV pilots and 6 short scripts of the year.

Question 4

What happens when someone requests a script?

Accepted Answer

When a request for a script is made, we will directly share the requester's email address with the writer(s).

Question 5

​Are optioned/produced screenplays excluded from the list?

Accepted Answer

To be included on the GOLDEN LIST, a script must not already be optioned or produced at the time of the list's annual announcement (July's end). If a script is found to have been optioned or produced before this, it will be replaced by the next script that meets this criteria, based on its ranking in the competition.
