All submissions are welcome, however, ideally projects will have all three creative principals [writer(s), director(s) and producer(s)] in place upon submission. Development will only commence once all three roles are filled. In the case of writers and directors, preference is given to those who have not made more than two feature length films. However, preference will be given to projects that name all three of the creative principals (writer, director, producer). Preference will be given to projects where the writer, director and producer have not individually or as a group made more than one dramatic feature film. |
