Spotlight Your Story: Applying to Our Artist Development Programs

Spotlight Your Story: Applying to Our Artist Development Programs
With so many stories to tell – and so many storytellers – how do you stand out and access the resources needed to bring your film to life? Film Independent’s Artist Development programs are designed to help elevate your project and move your career forward.
Join us for a virtual session with Film Independent’s Artist Development staff as they discuss our Screenwriting Lab and Episodic Directing Intensive.
Learn about the types of projects we typically support, what makes an application stand out, and how these programs can help you take the next step in your creative journey. The session will also include practical dos and don’ts for applying.
Speakers include Dea Vazquez (Associate Director, Fiction Programs), Ashley Flores (Manager, Fiction Programs) and Film Independent Fellows Mary Dauterman, Erin Lau and Naomi Iwamoto.
We are accepting applications for Screenwriting Lab through August 25 for non-Members, and September 8 for Film Independent Members. Episodic Directing Intensive applications will open July 21 and close September 22 for non-Members, October 6 for Members. Apply today!
Not a Member? Join today.
This event will be recorded and made available on Film Independent’s YouTube channel.
