The Justin Ptak Agency is a boutique agency, among the first to sign the new WGA Code of Conduct, that focuses on not only educating, and entertaining, but also enlightening.

CEO and studio executive, Justin Ptak, discussed the idea behind The Motion Screenplay Prize and its unique value: “The roots of the JPA go back to H.N. Swanson, a great mentor, and one of the greatest agents in all of Tinsel Town. Swanny was truly brilliant, he represented every legendary writer in New York who wanted to try their hand at the script trade from John Steinbeck to F. Scott Fitzgerald. We wan’t to continue that tradition of the focus on the writer and nurture their talent to achieve the greatest success with the complete backing of a WGA Agency. The JPA is proud to carry on the tradition as we had great success in 2021 despite these tumultuous times, we are not just surviving, but thriving and walking down red carpets looking up at silver screens.”
Nick Varga, JPA Agent, and accomplished screenwriter in his own right, summarized The Motion Picture Screenplay Prize thusly: “The greatest thing about the MPSP is that it isn’t a cookie cutter script contest like the rest, the rewards are tangible, and instead of just possibly going back to film school, you achieve a career in the film industry. We had a great first year with immense success we are building upon. We stand on the shoulders of giants of the industry.”
