The New York Television Festival has teamed up with ION Television to offer aspiring drama writers the opportunity to win $40,000, a development deal with ION, and the possibility to have your original dramatic screenplay produced as a TV movie to air on the ION Network!

Enter “Act I: The ION TV Movie Contest” and submit your original idea for a dramatic TV movie. One winner will receive $40,000 and a development deal with ION Television. Up to 25 finalists have the opportunity to earn a first-look deal with ION.

The submission period will open at 12:00 noon Eastern on October 26 and will close at 12:00 noon Eastern on January 15, 2010. Visit http://www.nytvf.com/2009_ion_contest.htm for more details!

Ideally, the ideas submitted by entrants will be for a two-hour made-for-TV movie that could potentially serve as a pilot for launching an hour-long drama procedural TV series.

We are looking for procedural dramas meant for mature audiences. The ideal script would have a strong central character or team of characters and a plot that focuses on the introduction, investigation, and solution of a central problem or mystery. An ending that leaves the door open to further stories or sequels involving some or all of the same characters is recommended.
