PQATV Short Film Screenwriting Competition 2018
Earlier this year PQATV launched the first short film screenwriting competition. We were overwhelmed with entries and after much careful consideration, we are proud and excited to announce our shortlist of ‘Highly Commended’ script treatments.
These script treatments will now move into the second stage of judging with the winner to be revealed in August.
The winning treatment will be developed into a script, with the writer receiving mentorship from a screenwriter. The script will then be made into a short film by PQATV with the writer and their friends getting the opportunity to shadow a professional crew!
