Objective
Do you have a heart warming family story or an engaging holiday script that’s perfect for all ages?
The Emerging Screenwriting team is seeking entries in both the holiday and family genres. Could your story become a new family tradition alongside Elf or Groundhog Day? Is it a fresh, clever take on the holidays, like Gremlins or Bad Santa?
Whether you’ve crafted a faith-based tale fit for Disney or a narrative exploring underrepresented experiences, we want to read it.
