Final Draft was proud to once again be a major sponsor of the 5th annual Contenders event presented by Deadline.com, an all-day affair on Saturday, November 7th, showcasing 40 films from 18 participating studios and distributors at the Director’s Guild of America.

On hand to speak on panels were writer Drew Goddard, director Jay Roach, producer John Lesher and actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Final Draft CEO Marc Madnick took the stage to award one lucky audience member a free script consultation from Trumbo writer John McNamara.
