Oh boy...then that needs to be a soap opera.

just be SURE you have registered your copyright before you send a manuscript in for consideration.

YES!! Very important!!

It seems like this company has never even produced a short fictional film, right? It's all commercials and "info-mercials" judging by the website.

And your text (is it the official one?) doesn't even specify if you're looking for feature-length screenplays or shorts?

Plus, the main page of the website doesn't seem to mention anything about this competition.

The whole thing doesn't seem serious to me, to be honest. I'm sure the intentions are all good and valid, but you have to know what you're getting yourself into. Producing a feature (if that is what you want) is a huge venture even when the budget is low. It requires tons of people with very specific skills.

Oh no, I know I'm being a complete asshole here, but if you click on Industrial Films you're going to get a good laugh.

First the super pretentious motto of the company appears and stays for way too long accompanied by the cheesiest horror film music you've heard in a long time. Then a guy wearing a helmet gets so close (and basically out of frame) to the camera that he almost knocks it over before we cut away from him. Then the clip crashes (at least in my WMP).

Don't send your scripts to these people. I'm sure they're making a good living out of what they do, but they sure as hell aren't ready to produce a movie.

Althom IS David Hasselhoff...
