Announcing the Winners of the 2024 Art of Brooklyn Film Fest Comedy Shorts Contest!

The Art of Brooklyn Film Festival was proud to launch our first genre screenplay contest for Fall 2024... and what better way to start that with Comedy scripts!

We had a very successful call for entries and received lots new TV and Short Film scripts. So many diverse creative voices and points of view with one thing in common: they are FUNNY!

Congratulations to everyone who placed in our competition. Clearly, the state of indie comedy is strong. And thank you to our friends at Roadmap Writers and ScriptHop for helping us create a great prize package!
