We accept short scripts, animations, and proof of concept shorts for TV pilots and features. We also accept filmed projects seeking Finishing Funds.
Our writers have gone onto gain representation, sold screenplays, and been staffed on TV shows as a direct result of entering the fund.
Our 12 commissioned short films have played at some of the top film festivals in the world. We are excited to commission two more stand-out short scripts for production in the Fall of 2021.
The two produced Short Films from each season will be sent to all 60+ OSCAR, BAFTA, EMMY & GOLDEN GLOBE winning Judges.
