Winning CineStory was the beacon we had been looking for - it convinced us that our writing was strong enough to deserve the time and attention of great industry professionals; it encouraged us to up our game, write better and work harder than we ever thought we could. It led us to the attention of the people who became our managers and agents. Starting a screenwriting career is a steep climb. CineStory gave us a major boost on the journey.
