THE BACKERS BEHIND THE EVENT

 

THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS:

Final Draft – it all starts with the script

FINAL DRAFT has been the industry standard and market leader in screenwriting software for more than 25 years. Used by 95% of film and television productions, it's the first choice for both professional and aspiring screenwriters, producers, directors, and industry executives.

The company was co-founded in 1990 by Marc Madnick and Ben Cahan, who recognized that Hollywood lacked a word-processor capable of automatically formatting a script to the entertainment industry’s stringent standards. This led to the creation of Final Draft, a fully dedicated screenwriting software application that automatically formats your script to Hollywood’s industry standards. It quickly became an essential tool for the entertainment industry, and in 2013 the program was awarded the prestigious Primetime Emmy Engineering Award.

In recent years, Final Draft’s mission has extended beyond providing writers with the best screenwriting software on the market. They also provide free and exclusive educational resources to writers, to help them every step of the way on their screenwriting journey. This includes interviews with professional screenwriters, podcasts, tech tips, and how-to articles. Regular events keep writers connected with industry and each other, and up-to-date on the latest industry trends. 

In 2016, Final Draft was acquired by Cast & Crew. Based in Burbank, California, and with offices across the U.S. and in Canada, Cast & Crew partners with to major and independent film and television studios, providing clients with world-class services.
