Hey, Everyone! I’m considering submitting the pilot of my TV project, Rescue Team 7, to the TV Drama Screenwriting Contest, but I'm not sure it'd be a good fit. It’s a high-stakes sci-fi tv series about a team of teenage secret agents who uncover a conspiracy involving abandoned animatronics and soul trafficking.(see logline here: https://www.stage32.com/profile/1157870/scripts_screenplays)
While it does have dramatic elements, it tends to lean mostly in the sci-fi/horror/adventure camp, with a lot of the focus being on the relationships between humans and animatronics rather than solely drama. Plus the whole thing is (so far) planned to be animated, so I'm not sure if it's the best fit for this competition.
But before I consider taking the plunge, I’d love to get your thoughts. Does this sound like the kind of concept that could stand out in a competition like this? Do you think it's worth the risk? Are there any more contests I should consider submitting to? I’d really appreciate any advice, feedback, or even just encouragement.
Thanks in advance for your insights!
Don’t submit as your script doesn’t meet the basic requirement.
Hey, Holly Fouche. It says this on the contest page: "We’re on the lookout for all types of TV drama scripts! Classic family melodramas? Atmospheric psychological mind-benders? Bold period pieces? Genre-twisting Legal, War, Musical, Sports, Fantasy or Sci-Fi? The next legendary biopic? We want to see it all!" You could email contests@stage32.com if you still feel unsure about it.
