THE SHORT FILM FUND SPRING SEASON IS NOW OPEN! The Short Film Fund is more than just a screenwriting contest. It's an
opportunity to get your script produced. The script is the
beginning, not the end. If the screenplay is the blueprint for the film, then
the writer's ultimate goal is to see that film produced and distributed. Shore Scripts has
commissioned 14 short films through the Fund that have played at some of the
top film festivals around the world including Cannes, Tribeca, and BFI London,
and have won major awards including a BAFTA. The writers have gone on to gain
representation, sell and option screenplays, and get staffed on TV shows as a
direct result of placing in the Fund. GRAND PRIZE - $10,000 Production Grant 2ND PLACE - $5,000
Production Grant ENTER YOUR SCRIPT TODAY! https://shorescripts.com/shortfilmfund/ Plus, our sponsor
ARRI Rental will provide free production equipment rental for the duration of
production in any country in which they operate. Our Top 5 Finalists
will receive an exclusive feedback report from one of our award-winning Judges
with suggestions on How You Can Further Develop Your Screenplay. And all of our
finalists will receive Free access to our exclusive Writers Forum - The Script
Hub and the opportunity to have their scripts read and considered by our
award-winning Judges, associate Directors, and a special selection of our
Industry Roster. PLUS, every writer who enters receives a Free 18-page booklet on How to
Get Your Screenplay Produced. GET FEEDBACK ON YOUR SCRIPT |

THE SHORT FILM FUND EARLY DEADLINE IS FEB 28TH! SHORTS CAN LAUNCH FILM-MAKING CAREERS Many filmmakers start with shorts. Short films help us learn the
craft, are more easily produced independently and on a budget, and have a
dedicated market in film festivals that can get a new voice noticed and launch
a career. Ava DuVernay's first
film, SATURDAY NIGHT LIFE, was a $6,000, 12-minute short about a struggling
single mother that screened at festivals and was broadcast on Showtime in 2007.
Wes Anderson's career-launching film, BOTTLE ROCKET, was originally a 13-minute
short written alongside Owen Wilson whom he met in a playwriting class that
screened at Sundance in 1994. And early in his career, Taika Waititi began
making shorts for New Zealand's annual 48-hour film contest. His short, TWO
CARS, ONE NIGHT earned him an Academy Award nomination in 2005. Of course, short films still require a solid script, financing, and resources
for production. In addition to cash grants, our Short Film Fund connects you with our
Industry Roster and Directors and offers production support from the Shore
Scripts team. BOTH OF OUR WINNERS WILL EACH RECEIVE MEETINGS AND BE MENTORED BY
OSCAR-NOMINATED PRODUCER MARIA GRACIA TURGEON – FAUVE, IKHWÈNE. Check out the Film Fund and get ready to get your script produced. SUBMIT YOUR SCRIPT TO THE SHORT FILM FUND |

Our Short Film Fund offers a unique opportunity to add a produced
script to your project portfolio. We provide funding & support for
screenwriters & filmmakers seeking to make short films, or proof-of-concept
projects for features, tv, and web series. We also accept submissions for
finishing funds. Still got questions? Here are some of our recent FAQs. Can I direct my script if I win? To date, every winner has had
their choice of director. However, should agreement not be reached, the winner
can always walk away. We do not seek to obtain the rights to your script or the
resulting film at any time, and we would never make the film without you. Who decides the winning script? Shore Scripts has assembled an
amazing panel of award-winning Judges who are responsible for choosing the
winning scripts. The panel includes Producers, Writers, Directors, and Festival
Programmers from around the world who will also view the winning films as they
get made. Our Directors Roster
provides another link in the chain between your script and produced project. With
your permission, our Directors receive the Finalists scripts from each season,
with a view to attaching talent and project development. The Short Film Fund (Spring Season) Regular Deadline ends at midnight March
31st pacific time! SUBMIT YOUR SCRIPT TO THE SHORT FILM FUND https://www.shorescripts.com/shortfilmfund/ |
