MThe first round of judging is done by individual industry professionals. If your script advances beyond the preliminary round, it will then be scored by multiple industry professionals to determine the quarters, semis, and finals. The top three in each genre category will then be read by leading industry executives not only for potential consideration, but also to help determine the winners of the Creative World Awards. All decisions of the judges are final.

The announcement dates are as follows:

• Preliminary Finalists – Week of April 15
• Quarter Finalists – Week of April 22
• Semi Finalists – Week of April 29
• Finalists – Week of May 6
• Winners – Week of May 15
