Screenwriter, script consultant, former screenplay contest judge, and current coverage writer for Coverfly and Austin Film Festival, Gerald Hanks is judging the Page Turner Screenplay Award.

He has had several award-winning shorts produced and has written five feature-length scripts, two of which were paid commissions from clients. His feature-length comedy “Scaredy Cat” made the finals of the National Lampoon Comedy Gold Screenwriting Contest. His feature-length faith-based drama "Prodigal" won the 2020-21 Kairos Prize for Spiritually Uplifting Screenplays.

His screenwriting blog, Story Into Screenplay, is one of the top 50 screenwriting blogs, according to Feedspot.com. He also works with a wide range of clients and helps them develop their ideas and concepts into professional-level screenplays.

I'm always looking for character-driven stories that can attract agents, actors, and audiences to the project.

Gerald has also moderated panels and delivered seminars at conventions such as Comicpalooza in Houston, Texas, and Louisiana Comic-Con in Lafayette, Louisiana.
