Shooting a scene from It's Always Sunny. Who needs Hollywood?

Shoot in Philadelphia, a Greater Philadelphia Film Office-sponsored venture, is seeking submissions for their annual film making competition. Screenwriters from across the globe are eligible to enter with a feature- or TV pilot-length screenplay that will be shot in Philadelphia. Winners will be determined depending on the quality of the scripts and by the likelihood that it can be shot locally. The grand prize is $10,000, with three subsequent cash awards following — one of which is the $2,500-prized "Great Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce Regional Award" that specifically recognizes local filmmakers. All it takes to win is a lot of talent and a minimal entry fee, which is reduced to $45 if you submit your shit by Feb. 1. Otherwise, it'll cost $65 if you enter by the final deadline of Mar. 1. For more information, go to THIS website. Good luck!
