Submission Process
Before You Submit
There are a few things you need to know:
- Your script must have a unique title. If the title has been used already, the system will inform you of such. Please contact the WGSA Administrator.
- Before submitting, your work must be registered with our WGSA Script Registry or any other legitimate Script Registry. You will not be able to list your script without a script registration number.
- Make sure that you categorise your project correctly.
- The submission form requires a logline and short synopsis. Please prepare this before the time. To ensure that your work has a professional ring to it, spell check, grammar check and check punctuation before you submit it into the public domain. To develop a professional logline, you may use this guideline:
Ultimate Logline Guide:
“A hero with a flaw that keeps him/her from achieving a worthwhile goal, who is forced to respond to a life changing event instigated by an opponent, and in the process of responding to that life changing event with the help of an ally, the hero is forced to overcome his/her flaw and only then is s/he able to do one-on-one with the opponent to realize his/her goal.”

Elevator Pitch | A 400-year-old musical code, hidden in a diary contains clues to an ancient, treasured instrument, which is passed from a Sultan to his daughter and from a Knight to his, before being savagely shipwrecked off the Wild Coast of Africa. The missing treasure will deeply impact four lives, but touch millions more: DR. SAMANTHA (SAM) BAKER, is an ambitious music composer who loses her university post, is forced to step out of her four-wall comfort zone and must find the treasure in time for the UN Peace concert of the decade. Her hopes are shattered when she sees her guitar case floating out to sea with a dead baby in it. Macho-loser, ex-diver ROBERTO DOS SANTOS, on self-imposed exile from a failing marriage must find any treasure he can, to inherit the money he desperately needs to save his dying daughter. A poor African couple use Sam’s guitar case to appease their ancestral sea spirits.
