"Lots of folks excited about the script contest and table reads. It's a real opportunity for writers to have their work heard by other filmmakers." The DIFF Screenplay Competition, presented by Event Horizon Films, encourages writers to submit scripts for feature films, television pilots, and short films for feedback, networking opportunities and a variety of prizes. Each script is reviewed by readers at top talent agencies and management companies in the industry. A selection of high-profile filmmakers determine the winners. Script titles and details will be revealed ahead of DIFF's first scheduled table read. "It was another great year of incredible stories," said Jodi Frizzell, executive producer, Event Horizon Films. "Many of which are worthy of being produced and screened. We're thankful to DIFF for granting us the opportunity to share three of the winning scripts through these panel sessions. They are sure to be fun reads for the actors, and the audience." The 2024 Dallas International Film Festival is April 25, 2024 through May 2, 2024.
