PURPOSE:The Written Image Screenwriting
Prize is designed to foster
the development and recognition of "new screenwriters," specifically
alumni of Columbia College Chicago who majored in Film or current
students with a declared major in Film -- writers who are at the threshold
of a professional career. The competition's goal is to recognize the
best of our 'amateur' screenwriters and give them a first step into
screenwriting as a profession.
