Submission period for the 2009 competition is now closed.
Finalists will be announced on February 2nd and honored at the 2009 L.A. Comedy Shorts Film Festival, held March 5-8 in Los Angeles, CA.
Contest Mission:
We couldn’t help but notice that comedies don’t seem to win their fair share of those prestigious screenwriting competitions. And that just didn’t seem fair.
If you write a script that’s original and entertaining with a surprising plot and great characters and make it HILARIOUS too, well, that deserves an award!
This is a festival started by funny people, for funny people. All judges are top names in the fields of comedy and filmmaking.
And we didn’t skimp on the prizes either!
