They are open to filmmakers of all and any background.

They have a variety of other grants available, plus excellent training and feedback opportunities through their unique process. The Pitch judges include the director of the National Film and Television School, while finalists have gone on to make internationally praised feature films, securing agents, managers and a roadmap for their career.
