The Gumball 3000 team ran an open competition to find a script writer for a  full length Feature Film.

The first round of the competition was to submit a single page of a script, from thousands of entries a total of one hundred writers were then selected to progess to the next  round. The second round of the competition was to have these one hundred writers submit treatments to the film producers.

My treatment made it through to the third and final round of the competition and was short-list to final the ten entries.
