As you answer the questions, please carefully read our mission statement, peruse our website, and see below.
WE ARE ESPECIALLY INTERESTED IN:
• BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ creatives
• Narratives that capture underrepresented experiences, communities, and outlooks
• Narratives that feature bold and unusual shifts in perspectives that are rarely seen in Hollywood
• Narratives that dare to point out the inconvenient truths and seek to change stigma, alienation, racism, homophobia, and other global sensitivities SUBMISSION FEE:
• $25 for the August 15th deadline
• $35 for the September 1st late deadline
We understand that film and television visionaries often experience great financial challenges as they are trying to develop their work and careers. In light of this, we are offering to waive our fee for those who fit this category. Please reach out to [email protected] if this applies to you and our team is happy to discuss this with you.
We will not consider your application if you have not paid the application fee or had the fee waived.
